金正恩在廿二日北韓中央通信社刊登的聲明中還擊川普是「瘋狗亂吠」
“A frightened dog barks louder,” Mr. Kim said in a statement, referring to Trump’s speech at the United Nations General Assembly.
與「愛玩火的流氓」，
“He is unfit to hold the prerogative of supreme command of a country, and he is surely a rogue and a gangster fond of playing with fire, rather than a politician.”
最後一句也不忘記諷刺川普為「老番癲」。
“I will surely and definitely tame the mentally deranged U.S. dotard with fire.”
