When the east coast airing of The Bachelorette was interrupted by a report on President Donald Trump’s meeting with North Korean leader Kim Jong Un, Bachelor Nation took to Twitter to complain. Here are some of the best tweets:
- “This one-on-one sucks.”
- “Spoiler Alert: Kim Jong Un accepts Trump's rose.”
- “Unless Trump is shaking hands with Chris Harrison while Kim Jong serenades Becca and the men so they can waltz, stop interrupting my show for this s**t.”
- “#TheBachelorette was just interrupted for the live broadcast of President Trump and Kim Jong Un shaking hands and I’d like to know who is getting the first impression rose.”
- “BUT are Donald Trump and Kim Jong-Un here for the right reasons?”
- “Always great to see another Asian contestant on the show, hopefully he makes it to the next round.”
- “Heading to the Fantasy Suite.”
- “For the love of god, I’m watching #TheBachelorette to escape reality, PLEASE LET ME HAVE THIS, TRUMP!!!”
- “Unless Trump is asking Kim who he thinks is getting a rose tonight, they can kindly get off my television.”
- “I went from looking at 25 handsome men to the faces of Kim Jong Un and Trump, and honestly, I shrieked.”
Was the summit worthy of pre-empting the Bachelorette? Did ABC make the right call?
