Kim Jong-un has a new name for Trump and people are Googling to see what it means

Online searches have been "high as a kite."

Following Donald Trump's volatile speech on Tuesday at the United Nations General Assembly, North Korean leader Kim Jong-un has fired back and threatened to test a hydrogen bomb in the Pacific Ocean near Japan. Speaking at the U.N. General Assembly, Trump said that the United States will have no hesitation in the total destruction of North Korea, should Kim Jong-un continue to test nuclear weapons. “If it [the US] forced to defend itself or its allies, we will have no choice but to totally destroy North Korea,” Trump told the assembly during his maiden appearance on such a stage. Referring to Kim Jong-Un, he added: “Rocket Man is on a suicide mission for him and his regime." He added: "The United States is ready, willing and able but hopefully this will not be necessary." North Korea’s foreign minister, Ri Yong-ho, recently said that Pyongyang could respond to Trump’s recent threat of military action by testing a powerful nuclear weapon in the Pacific. Following this warning, Japan’s defence minister has stated that “we cannot deny the possibility it may fly over our country,” hours after Kim Jong-un called Trump "unfit to hold the prerogative of supreme command of a country, and he is surely a rogue and a gangster fond of playing with fire, rather than a politician." He also said that Trump is "mentally deranged." North Korea had already tested a hydrogen bomb inside their own borders, but testing a nuclear device outside of its own lands would mark a major escalation in tensions. Regarding his new name for Trump, on two separate occasions, Kin Jong-un has called the US president a dotard. "Now that Trump has denied the existence of and insulted me and my country in front of the eyes of the world and made the most ferocious declaration of war in history that he would destroy the DPRK, we will consider with seriousness exercising a corresponding, highest level of hard-line countermeasure in history. Action is the best option in treating the dotard who, hard of hearing, is uttering only what he wants to say," he said. Kin Jong-un finished his address by stating: "I will surely and definitely tame the mentally deranged US dotard with fire.” Following the release of the statement, Merriam-Webster said that online searches for the definition of the word dotard are "high as a kite." In fact, you can even see the jump in Google searches. According to Merriam-Webster, a dotard describes a person who is in a state of "senile decay marked by decline of mental poise and alertness." Given Trump's penchant for calling North Korea's leader 'rocket man'in his tweets, we might be seeing the word dotard entering the popular lexicon. https://twitter.com/realDonaldTrump/status/909384837018112000
