A minister for North Korea said President Donald Trump is on "a suicide mission" after threatening to destroy the country in a speech to the United Nations.
The official said Saturday that Trump is "a mentally deranged person full of megalomania" who is holding "the nuclear button."
In the speech, Trump slammed "Rocket Man" Kim Jong Un and called on all nations to isolate the Kim regime in light of its "reckless pursuit" of nuclear weapons and treatment of its citizens.
He also said it was "an outrage" that some nations continue to trade with North Korea. At other points, he referred to Kim's regime as "depraved" and "twisted."
The minister said the insults only makes "our rocket's visit to the entire US mainland inevitable all the more."
