Retired NBA legend Dennis Rodman broke down in tears during a televised interview saying President Donald Trump was ‘proud of him’ for his role in helping to enable the historic meeting with North Korean ruler Kim Jong-un in Singapore on Monday.
While wearing a red ‘Make America Great Again’ hat, Rodman became emotional during an interview with CNN.
‘In my heart and soul, when I first went to North Korea, I was very honored to be selected to go there,’ Rodman told CNN.
‘Once I went to North Korea I didn’t really understand what the whole situation was as far as being over there.
‘When I met Kim Jong-un, I didn’t know what to expect…but once I got to know the culture over there I felt at home.’
In the bizarre interview, Rodman lashed out at former President Barack Obama.
‘It’s a great day. I am here to see it. I’m so happy,’ the former star power forward said.
‘And Obama did not give me the time of day.’
The former basketball star was referring to his efforts to act as a mediator between Kim and the Obama administration, which rebuffed him.
Rodman began crying when he said that he received death threats for meeting Kim in North Korea.
‘I had to hide out, I couldn’t even go home,’ Rodman said.
‘I took all those bullets. Everyone came at me and I’m still standing.’
Rodman said people ridiculed him when he met with Kim and predicted that he would be an effective peacemaker.
