The North Korean Central News Agency said Thursday that Democratic presidential candidate Joe Biden should be “beaten to death with a stick,” calling him a “rabid dog.”
The news agency insulted the former vice president in a post that warned the Democratic People’s Republic of Korea will inflict “merciless punishment” on those who “slander the dignity of the supreme leadership.”
The insults came two weeks after the former vice president called North Korean dictator Kim Jong Un a “murderous dictator.” Biden has repeatedly criticized President Donald Trump’s relationship with the North Korean dictator, and said in an Oct. 31 Medium post that Trump’s “‘love letters’ to murderous dictator Kim Jong Un have delivered little more than made-for-TV moments.”
North Korea responded by saying Biden is “a rabid dog only keen on getting at others’ throats.”

The publication went on to list examples that North Korea sees as Biden seeking his own interests, such as Biden pushing back preparations to kill Osama Bin laden.
