Khamenei and Kim hurl torrents of abuse at Trump

The two main targets of President Donald Trumps ire, Ayatollah Ali Khamenei and “rocket man” Kim Jong-un, plumbed a new low in international discourse with the insults they hurled back at him. The Iranian leader called the US president a “gangster and cowboy,” whose “foolish, ugly, insolent an disorderly speech” comes from “anger and desperation,” adding, “The American nation should feel ashamed of having such a president.”

The North Korean leader called Mr. Trump a “mentally deranged US dotard” for threatening his country with total destruction, as well as “a frightened dog who barks loudest.” Kim vowed to pursue the “highest level of hard line countermeasures in history.”
North Korean Foreign Minister Ri Yong-ho added to his master’s insults by calling Trump “a rogue and gangster fond of playing with fire, rather than a politician.” He then announced that a hydrogen bomb test would soon be conducted in the Pacific.
