In 2019 a Twitter user claimed that Allen was biased toward Trump and alleged that weak leaders preceding Donald Trump were what landed the U.S. at a disadvantage. The users suggested that Allen should try some gym time.
I’m fat, so my analysis is bad. That seems like bad analysis to me. If you read the piece, it says not making a deal was the best option. But it doesn’t look at the choice in a vacuum in which POTUS didn’t first elevate Kim, go to his backyard twice and pine for deal. https://t.co/EdXBVSLI3T

Also, I’m down 31 pounds in the last four months. I can’t tell you how much I appreciate the unintended encouragement. Someday, maybe, you’ll have to criticize my analysis solely on the merits. I hope we can both look forward to that day. https://t.co/g3nkBdoJyG
