There is so much to learn still, you guys. North Korea and the USA’s rivalry is well-known, they don’t see eye-to-eye but there is something common in the two nations. The answer is the leaders of both the countries have a strange love for heretofore little known words. Donald Trump gave us ‘bigly’, ‘covfefe’ and a presidency that looks like a prank while Kim Jong Un just used a word to describe Donald Trump that has left people scratching their heads and looking up their dictionaries. In his latest speech, he called Donald Trump a ‘dotard’.
What is a ‘dotard’? Think dotard doesn’t mean anything? You are wrong, dotard is actually a rather apt word for the POTUS and Kim Jong-Un used it cleverly enough. Shame none of use knew the word existed or headlines would have been so much more fun to write. We got to know, because social media. One after the other tweets started pouring in and soon it was declared that Donald Trump is actually a ‘dotard’. We wouldn’t keep you guessing, check out these tweets below:

Kim Jong Un calls Trump a mentally deranged U.S. dotard. Searches for ‘dotard’ are high as a kite. https://t.co/HztPoLSjXi

Update: everyone in office is currently either looking up how to pronounce “dotard” or how to say it in Korean

Haha everyone’s looking up ‘dotard’ and saying “oh, yeah, that’s bang on actually”

We’ve reached the point where the unstable leader of North Korea has a better grasp on the English language than the U.S. President. #dotard
