Why Donald Trump Was 'Sentenced To Death' By North Korea

The US President is called a "hideous criminal" and a "coward" for urging Asian nations to increase pressure on North Korea to halt its growing nuclear programme.

Donald Trump deserves the death penalty for insulting North Korean leader Kim Jong Un, the country's state media has said.

An editorial in the ruling party newspaper, Rodong Sinmun, called the US President a "hideous criminal" for urging the five Asian countries he visited last week to maximise pressure on North Korea to halt its growing nuclear programme.

The paper also called Mr Trump a "coward" for cancelling a visit to the inter-Korean border.

"The worst crime for which he can never be pardoned is that he dared ]to[ malignantly hurt the dignity of the supreme leadership," the editorial said.

"He should know that he is just a hideous criminal sentenced to death by the Korean people."

Mr Trump refused to hold back on his usual criticism of Mr Kim during his 11-day trip to Asia.

While in Hanoi, towards the end of his trip, he taunted the North Korean leader over his height and weight.

He tweeted: "Why would Kim Jong Un insult me by calling me 'old', when I would NEVER call him 'short and fat'?"

The Rodong editorial attacked Mr Trump's failure to tour the demilitarised zone )DMZ( dividing North and South Korea, which has become a traditional stop-off for senior US officials visiting the south.

The US President's helicopter turned back after five minutes into the trip to the DMZ due to bad weather.

"It wasn't the weather. He was just too scared to face the glaring eyes of our troops," the editorial added.

I can imagine the fire in the eyes of the troops.

Donald ran for his dear life. He can only fight using a keypad on twitter, lol.

But jokes apart, let's pray Donald Trump and Kim Jong Un don't commission the Armageddon very soon.

These egotistical men hardly know when to stop.
