TOKYO (Reuters) - U.S. President Donald Trump on Monday publicly endorsed North Korea's scathing personal attack on former U.S. Vice President Joe Biden, dismissing criticism that he was siding with a foreign dictator over a fellow American.
"Well, Kim Jong Un made a statement that Joe Biden is a low IQ individual. He probably is, based on his record. I think I agree with him on that," Trump told a news conference in Tokyo.
Trump's comments on the world stage reinforced a tweet that he sent on Saturday with a similar message and drew renewed criticism of the president back home.
Last month, Vice President Joe Biden spoke about new career opportunities in industries related to science, technology, engineering, and mathematics, also known as STEM. In his remarks on a new high-tech training initiative for veterans, Biden explained that the White House’s study of the need for high-skilled American workers revealed nearly 1.4 million tech jobs that need to be filled in the next few years.
