Donald Trump to Kim Jong-un: My nuclear button is much bigger than yours, and it works
Trump’s remark on Twitter came after Kim warned the US on Monday that the nuclear button ‘is always on my desk’
US President Donald Trump warned Kim Jong-un Tuesday he has a “much bigger” nuclear button than the North Korean leader, as Washington dismissed the prospect of high-level talks between Pyongyang and Seoul.
Trump said: “North Korean Leader Kim Jong-un just stated that the ‘Nuclear Button is on his desk at all times.’
“Will someone from his depleted and food starved regime please inform him that I too have a Nuclear Button, but it is a much bigger & more powerful one than his, and my Button works!”
The tweet was in reference to Kim’s annual New Year address in which he warned he has a “nuclear button” on his table, but sweetened his remarks by expressing an interest in dialogue and taking part in the Pyeongchang Games next month.
