On Twitter, Trump criticized China generally without ever singling out Chinese President Xi Jinping by name.
President Trump in a tweet Thursday morning said that North Korea’s recent missile launch showed that the Chinese envoy who just returned from the country “seems to have had no impact on Little Rocket Man.”
On Wednesday, North Korea launched its third and most advanced intercontinental ballistic missile, which experts now believe could reach the mainland United States.
In response, Trump went on Twitter, criticizing China generally without ever singling out Chinese President Xi Jinping by name and using his favorite nickname — “Rocket Man” — for North Korea’s leader, Kim Jong Un.
“The Chinese Envoy, who just returned from North Korea, seems to have had no impact on Little Rocket Man,” Trump wrote.
