Joe Biden campaign fires back after North Korean media calls him a 'rabid dog'

https://www.usatoday.com/story/news/politics/2019/11/15/biden-north-korea-rabid-dog/4200195002/


Former Vice President Joe Biden's campaign fired back after North Korean state media called him a "rabid dog" who "must be beaten to death with a stick."

"It's becoming more and more obvious that repugnant dictators, as well as those who admire and ‘love’ them, find Joe Biden threatening," said Andrew Bates, a Biden campaign spokesman, in a statement to the Associated Press. "That’s because he’d restore American leadership in the world on day one by putting our security, interests and values at the heart of our foreign policy."

Earlier Thursday, in a commentary released through the official Korean Central News Agency, the totalitarian regime said Biden had the "temerity to dare slander the dignity of the supreme leadership of the DPRK," using the official name of North Korea, the Democratic People's Republic of Korea. "It is the last-ditch efforts of the rabid dog expediting his death."

"Rabid dogs like Biden can hurt lots of people if they are allowed to run out of control," the commentary continued. "They must be beaten to death with a stick, before it is too late."

It appears the North Korean regime was responding to a Biden campaign ad released Tuesday that included a picture of North Korean leader Kim Jong Un and called him a "tyrant."

Biden not only has to run what's in effect a general election campaign against Trump already, he has to deal with Trump's little dictator pals.

But if anyone can handle this, Biden can.

If I were to vote in a presidential
primary today, I would vote for:

And it's disgusting that Trump hasn't spoken out against this sort of language from NK.

Any sane, normal, legitimate president would have.

Wonder why that is?



As for Kim Jung Un? What better endorsement could Joe get than spark the ire of sawed-off dictator/murderer of his own people?

Yeah, the dictators are united: Joe Biden will not be your Best Friend. Party's over, suckers!
