Trump claims he was 'sticking up for' Biden with 'low IQ' comment

“I was actually sticking up for Sleepy Joe Biden while on foreign soil. Kim Jong Un called him a ‘low IQ idiot,’ and many other things, whereas I related the quote of Chairman Kim as a much softer “low IQ individual.’ Who could possibly be upset with that?” the president tweeted.

Trump appeared to be responding to Biden’s presidential campaign, which earlier Tuesday blasted the president for agreeing with the North Korean leader’s criticism of his potential 2020 White House rival as having a “low IQ.”

Biden campaign official Kate Bedingfield called Trump’s attacks “beneath the dignity of the office” and said “to be on foreign soil, on Memorial Day, and to side repeatedly with a murderous dictator against a fellow American and former vice president speaks for itself.”

A version I remember from elementary school:

I took up for you today.

Somebody said you ate shit sandwiches with tartar sauce.

I told him you don't like tartar sauce.

His "1994 crime bill" tweet is getting ratio'd badly as well.

greater than 2:1.

Many of those retweets are coming from bots, so it's even worse than the numbers suggest. Gump is getting pummeled.
