President Donald Trump has responded to North Korea’s official KCNA news agency calling former Vice President Joe Biden a “rabid dog” who must be”beaten to death with a stick, before it is too late.”

On Sunday, the president responded to North Korea on Twitter — by both defending and mocking Biden.

“Mr. Chairman, Joe Biden may be Sleepy and Very Slow, but he is not a ‘rabid dog.’ He is actually somewhat better than that, but I am the only one who can get you where you have to be. You should act quickly, get the deal done. See you soon!” President Trump tweeted.
