WASHINGTON (AP) – President Donald Trump is defending an unlikely target: Joe Biden.

Trump is responding to North Korea calling the former vice president and Democratic candidate a “rabid dog” who “must be beaten to death with a stick.”
Trump says in a tweeted message to North Korean leader Kim Jong Un that Biden “may be Sleepy and Very Slow,” but says, “he is not a ‘rabid dog’” and “is actually somewhat better than that.”
Still, Trump adds he is “the only one” who can get Kim “where you have to be,” and is urging Kim to “act quickly, get the deal done.” He’s also hinting at another meeting, writing, “See you soon!”
The tweet comes amid an impeachment investigation into Trump’s push for Ukraine to announce an investigation into Biden and his son, Hunter.
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! https://t.co/kO2k14lTf7

Weird man, (make of it what you will)
He was not defending Joe Biden. He called him sleepy Joe.
How far down has trumpf taken the Presidency. He tried to pump up this bloody tyrant Un – where did that go? Another disgusting epic by the imbecile.
The smartest, nicest and best political gesture the President ever did
You are on the money on this one.
Trump has made no progress in disarming North Korea since that love letter he got from Little Rocketman.
What happened to the great deal maker?
Sort of reminds of that old standby:
!rst man to 2nd: “I defended you when Joe insulted you.”
2nd: How?
1rst: He said you aren’t fit to sleep with pigs, but I defended you; I said, “You are.”
