NORTH’S MEDIA TAKES WHEEL AS WAR OF WORDS RAMPS UP

-

KIM Jong-un didn’t let being called “short and fat” by Donald Trump spoil his fun when he visited the Kumsong tractor factory in Nampo, North Korea. However the official state newspaper wasn’t quite so relaxed about the US President.

“The worst crime for which he can never be pardoned is that he dared malignantl­y hurt the dignity of the supreme leadership,” the paper said. “He should know that he is just a hideous criminal sentenced to death by the Korean people.”

The stance was in response to an earlier tweet by Mr Trump saying: “Why would Kim Jong-Un insult me by calling me ‘old,’ when I would NEVER call him ‘short and fat’?”
