Joe Biden camp reacts to North Korea calling him a 'fool': 'No surprise' regime favors Trump

Of course, North Korea prefers trump. https://www.washingtontimes.com/news/2019/may/22/joe-biden-camp-reacts-to-north-korea-calling-him-a/

Joseph R. Biden’s 2020 presidential campaign responded to North Korea’s criticism Wednesday, saying it’s “no surprise” that the regime would prefer President Trump over the former vice president.

Pyongyang’s official Korean Central News Agency published a commentary piece earlier Wednesday blasting Mr. Biden as a “fool of low IQ” and an “imbecile bereft of elementary quality as a human being” after the former vice president called Kim Jong-un a “thug” during a recent campaign speech.

Andrew Bates, Mr. Biden’s campaign spokesman, said North Korea favors President Trump because he’s a pushover to the “murderous regime.”

“As Vice President Biden said in Philadelphia, Donald Trump ‘embraces dictators and tyrants like Putin and Kim Jong-un’ while alienating our closest allies. That is antithetical to who we are and it has to change,” Mr. Bates told ABC News in a statement.

Really, do these people listen to themselves? Miss Sarah is referencing Kim Jong-un as a positive for their side? He and Trump agree so that's something to underscore in the twisted minds of this Administration. And speaking ill of an American, a former Vice-President, while you're abroad is now A-okay.

There really is no bottom for these people. Every single God Damn day they prove themselves unfit and unAmerican in their words and deeds.

I keep saying I can no longer be surprised. Yet I always am.

Never forget, never forgive!
