It's happening: Dennis Rodman makes the case for peace with North Korea

Worried about North Korea? RELAX. Dennis “The Worm” Rodman is on it:

Please don’t take what I’ve said out of context. I am friends w/ both @realDonaldTrump & Kim Jong Un and I believe in a positive future between us and North Korea. President Trump is the perfect leader for the job! I am sending love out to both & strongly believe both want PEACE

Dennis,… we're in your hands. https://t.co/P6N8344gCO

Nope — not weird at all:

it says a lot about 2017 that Dennis Rodman brokering peace between the US and NK isn't all that weird https://t.co/6gBoXCCrrK

Although not everyone, for some reason, is convinced that Rodman can save the day:

Earlier Rodman said Kim Jong-un is “probably a madman,” which is why he sent the “please don’t take what I’ve said out of context” tweet above:
