North Korea criticized Joe Biden as a “fool of low IQ” after the presidential hopeful called the country’s leader Kim Jong Un a “dictator and tyrant.”
The country’s official state news agency released a statement that said Biden was “an imbecile bereft of elementary quality as a human being.”
“The presidential candidate from the Democratic Party during his recent election campaigning reeled off rhetoric slandering the supreme leadership of [North Korea],” the Korean Central News Agency said.
“What he uttered is just sophism of an imbecile bereft of elementary quality as a human being, let alone a politician.”
During a campaign stop in Pennsylvania on Saturday, Biden blasted President Trump for dealing with unsavory world leaders.
“Are we a nation that embraces dictators and tyrants like [Russian President Vladimir] Putin and Kim Jong Un?” Biden said.
The North Korean news agency also brought an allegation that Biden plagiarized a paper in college and mocked his presidential candidacy.
“Even the American media derided him as a man with ‘manic-obsessive running of the mouth,’ saying that he likes giving a speech but he is not serious in his words,” the statement read.
“This is enough to make a cat laugh.”
