PunkTheFunk 125,703 Posted November 17, 2019 Share Posted November 17, 2019 Trump defends Biden over North Korea's 'rabid dog' jibe As the race for the 2020 presidential election gathers pace, the bitter war of words between US President Donald Trump and his main political rival Joe Biden is expected to escalate. Seen as the frontrunner for the Democratic nomination, Mr Biden has been the main target of Mr Trump's verbal broadsides so far. But some insults, it seems, go too far, even for President Trump. On Sunday Mr Trump tweeted a rare, albeit backhanded, defence of Mr Biden in response to a vicious verbal attack by North Korea. The surprising tweet was addressed to "Mr Chairman", an apparent reference to North Korea's leader Kim Jong-un. In the tweet, Mr Trump said although Mr Biden was "sleepy and very slow", he was "not a rabid dog", as North Korea had called him. The president's comments were included in a retweet of a conservative commentator's post about North Korea's attack on Mr Biden. North Korea had lambasted Mr Biden for having the "temerity to dare slander the dignity" of its leader, Mr Kim. "Rabid dogs like Biden can hurt lots of people if they are allowed to run about," a statement, carried North Korea's official KCNA news agency, said on Thursday. "They must be beaten to death with a stick." https://www.bbc.com/news/world-us-canada-50452921 ___________ Has the Cheeto-in-Chief finally turned a new leaf?

PoshLife 17,019 Posted November 17, 2019 Share Posted November 17, 2019 His staff were probably pressuring him to defend a fellow American from the North Korean despot, since it would be an extremely bad look to let that slide. And that was his way of squaring that with not actually being nice to his political opponent. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
