Trump on Tuesday at the UN called Kim “Rocket Man” and threatened to “totally destroy” North Korea.
The North Korean leader says, “far from making remarks of any persuasive power that can be viewed as helpful to defusing tension, he made unprecedented rude nonsense one has never heard from any of his predecessors.”
“A frightened dog barks louder,” Kim says in the report.
“I’d like to advise Trump to exercise prudence in selecting words and to be considerate of whom he speaks to when making a speech in front of the world.”
Kim also calls Trump a “rogue and a gangster fond of playing with fire.”
He accuses President Trump of making “the most ferocious declaration of a war in history,” and says he will consider countermeasures.
“I will surely and definitely tame the mentally deranged U.S. dotard with fire,” Kim concludes.
