President Trump used a new nickname in reference to Kim Jong Un over the weekend that had internet users going wild.
Trump mocked the North Korean leader, calling him “rocket man.”
Check it out (via Fox News):
I spoke with President Moon of South Korea last night. Asked him how Rocket Man is doing. Long gas lines forming in North Korea. Too bad!

Here’s more:
Kim has apparently conducted six nuclear bomb tests and numerous inter-continental missile launches in his attempt to affix a nuclear warhead on a rocket that could reach foreign soil.
Trump has threatened Kim about his pursuit of a nuclear arsenal in violation of international rule, with the United Nations Security Council earlier this month imposing more economic sanctions, including cutting off petroleum supplies.
U.S. Ambassador to the U.N. Nikki Haley commented on Sunday that North Korea “will be destroyed” should the U.S. defend itself using military force.
