Dennis Rodman tweets hope for peace with North Korea

Retired NBA player and self-proclaimed friend of North Korean dictator Kim Jong-un Dennis Rodman put forth his best effort to encourage peace:

Rodman has visited North Korea a number of times. He also was a supporter of Trump during the 2016 election and has offered to be an envoy to North Korea.

"I'm close enough to him to the fact that he can discuss anything with me," he told Stephen Colbert in December."But the deal is I don't discuss politics because that's not my job. My job is to be a human being, to try and connect us with him."
