North Korean state newspaper announces 'death sentence' for Trump
A North Korean state newspaper has issued a death sentence for U.S.
President Donald Trump after he insulted Kim Jong-Un during his recent
trip to Asia, according to the Guardian.
An
editorial in the ruling party's newspaper Rodong Sinmun declared Trump a
"criminal" and said their nation's people had sentenced him to
death because of the unflattering way he talks about their country and
their supreme leader.
"The
worst crime for which he can never be
pardoned is that he dared [to] malignantly hurt the dignity of the
supreme leadership," the editorial read. "He should know that he is just
a hideous criminal sentenced to death by the Korean people."
The
scathing article was in response to comments Trump made during
his recent visit to South Korea, where he condemned the North's "cruel
dictatorship" in a speech to South Korea’s National Assembly.
During his address, Trump called North Korea, "a hell that no person deserves," and warned that
"the weapons you are acquiring are not making you safer. They are
putting your regime in grave danger. Every step you take down this dark
path increases the peril you face."
"Do not underestimate us, and do not try us," the U.S. President
added. "We will defend our common security, our shared prosperity, and
our sacred liberty."
The editorial also took aim at the fact that
Trump skipped a planned visit to the demilitarized border zone between
North and South Korea due to inclement weather.
"It wasn’t the weather. He was just too scared to face the glaring eyes of our troops," the article said.
Days
after his South Korea visit, Trump again insulted Kim Jong-Un, calling
the dictator "short and fat" in a controversial tweet
