Great Leader, Kim Jong-un calls tRump a Dotard!
The Honorable,
Great Leader, Kim Jong-un has now called President Trump a "Dotard."
The North Korean state newspaper Rodong Sinmun published an extensive library of photos of Kim Jong-un on Thursday scaling Mount Paektu, the highest peak on the Korean peninsula and a key historical and spiritual site for both North and South Koreans.
According to the newspaper, Kim traveled to the summit and toured a variety of “revolutionary” sites on horseback, navigated the heavy snowfall in the area to seek a rekindling of the “offensive spirit of Paektu.”
The South Korean news service Yonhap suggested that the combination of the Kim photo collections and essays by high-ranking officials urging North Koreans to embrace “self-reliance,” meaning a rejection of Western freedoms and acceptance of the hardships the non-elite endure under communism, were a sign that Pyongyang is not expecting any breakthroughs with the free world in the near future.
“As long as we have the revolutionary spirit of Mount Paekdu, and revolutionary spirit of self reliance, we can survive on our own and open the door for development and prosperity of our own style,” Yonhap quoted Vice Premier Kim Tok-hun as writing.
Choe Son Hui, North Korea's first vice-minister of Foreign Affairs, also issued a statement Thursday carried by the Korean Central News Agency (KCNA), North Korea's regime news service, claiming that the “waves of hatred of our people against the U.S. and the Americans … are getting higher and higher.”
“It would be fortunate if the utterances of the use of military force and the title of figurative style made by President [Donald] Trump were a careless verbal lapse, but matter becomes different if they were a planned provocation that deliberately targeted us,” Choe warned. “If any language and expressions stoking the atmosphere of confrontation are used once again on purpose at a crucial moment as now, that must really be diagnosed as the relapse of the dotage of a dotard.”
