Trump is mentally deranged, will pay: Kim Jong-un

TIL Desk/World/Seoul/ North Korean leader Kim Jong-un has vowed to take the “highest-level” of action against “mentally deranged” US President Donald Trump’s threat to “totally destroy” Pyongyang over its nuclear and missile programmes, a state-media report said on Friday.

In a rare direct statement, Kim said he “will consider with seriousness exercising of a corresponding, highest level of hard-line countermeasure in history” said.

“I am now thinking hard about what response he could have expected when he allowed such eccentric words to trip off his tongue. I will surely and definitely tame the mentally deranged US dotard (senile old person) with fire,”. The North Korean also said that Trump comments were reflective of “mentally deranged behaviour”.

In his first address to the UN, Trump on Tuesday said that the US was ready to “totally destroy” North Korea if it was forced to defend its allies, a warning seen as unprecedented for a US president delivering an address to the world’s leaders and top diplomats.
