White House press secretary Sarah Sanders said Sunday that President Donald Trump agrees with North Korean dictator Kim Jong Un’s recent assessment of former Vice President Joe Biden during an interview on NBC.

“I think they agree in their assessment of former Vice President Joe Biden,” Sanders said during NBC’s interview about Kim and Trump. “The president watched him and his administration with President Obama fail for eight years,” she continued, referring to Biden.

Trump recently responded to the comments made by The North Korean Central News Agency about Biden. He tweeted his thoughts about the comments on Sunday, referring to Biden as “Swampman Joe Biden” and saying that they made him smile.

The state-run news agency labeled Biden as “reckless and senseless, seized by ambition for power” in a report on May 21. The report also said that Biden is a “fool of low IQ” and that his run for presidency was “enough to make a cat laugh.”

Sanders, currently in Japan with Trump, also accused the Obama administration of causing more issues in places like North Korea, and said that Trump has become responsible for cleaning these “messes” up.

“We shouldn’t even be in the position that we’re in to have to deal with North Korea at the level we are if they had done their job in the first place,” Sanders said to NBC. “They failed with Iran, they failed with North Korea, they failed on trade. And we finally have a president that’s being tough on these countries.”

Recently, concern over North Korea grew when they conducted missile tests, but Trump said that he was not concerned about it. He tweeted that he is “confident” that Kim will keep his promise. (RELATED: North Korea Won’t Talk To US Until Trump Reduces Disarmament Demands)

Issues between Biden and Trump have increased since Biden announced his candidacy last month. In Biden’s official video announcing his candidacy, he warned that “if we give Donald Trump eight years in the White House he will forever and fundamentally alter the character of this nation.”

Trump has given Biden nicknames like “Job-Killing Joe” and “SleepyCreepy Joe.” Trump’s campaign made a graphic for Biden’s Pittsburgh event last month, tweeting him a message that told Biden to “enjoy the Trump economy!”

Biden aside, Sanders said that Trump’s big focus is still on denuclearization.

“Again, the president’s focus in this process is the relationship he has, and making sure we continue on the path to denuclearization,” she said during the interview. “And he feels good that the Chairman will stay firm with the commitment that he made with the president, and move toward denuclearization.”

Readers,

Instead of sucking up to the political and corporate powers that dominate America, The Daily Caller is fighting for you — our readers. We humbly ask you to consider joining us in this fight.

Now that millions of readers are rejecting the increasingly biased and even corrupt corporate media and joining us daily, there are powerful forces lined up to stop us: the old guard of the news media hopes to marginalize us; the big corporate ad agencies want to deprive us of revenue and put us out of business; senators threaten to have our reporters arrested for asking simple questions; the big tech platforms want to limit our ability to communicate with you; and the political party establishments feel threatened by our independence.

We don't complain -- we can't stand complainers -- but we do call it how we see it. We have a fight on our hands, and it's intense. We need your help to smash through the big tech, big media and big government blockade.

We're the insurgent outsiders for a reason: our deep-dive investigations hold the powerful to account. Our original videos undermine their narratives on a daily basis. Even our insistence on having fun infuriates them -- because we won’t bend the knee to political correctness.

One reason we stand apart is because we are not afraid to say we love America. We love her with every fiber of our being, and we think she's worth saving from today’s craziness.

Help us save her.

A second reason we stand out is the sheer number of honest responsible reporters we have helped train. We have trained so many solid reporters that they now hold prominent positions at publications across the political spectrum. Hear a rare reasonable voice at a place like CNN? There’s a good chance they were trained at Daily Caller. Same goes for the numerous Daily Caller alumni dominating the news coverage at outlets such as Fox News, Newsmax, Daily Wire and many others.

Simply put, America needs solid reporters fighting to tell the truth or we will never have honest elections or a fair system. We are working tirelessly to make that happen and we are making a difference.

Since 2010, The Daily Caller has grown immensely. We're in the halls of Congress. We're in the Oval Office. And we're in up to 20 million homes every single month. That's 20 million Americans like you who are impossible to ignore.

We can overcome the forces lined up against all of us. This is an important mission but we can’t do it unless you — the everyday Americans forgotten by the establishment — have our back.

Please consider becoming a Daily Caller Patriot today, and help us keep doing work that holds politicians, corporations and other leaders accountable. Help us thumb our noses at political correctness. Help us train a new generation of news reporters who will actually tell the truth. And help us remind Americans everywhere that there are millions of us who remain clear-eyed about our country's greatness.

In return for membership, Daily Caller Patriots will be able to read The Daily Caller without any of the ads that we have long used to support our mission. We know the ads drive you crazy. They drive us crazy too. But we need revenue to keep the fight going. If you join us, we will cut out the ads for you and put every Lincoln-headed cent we earn into amplifying our voice, training even more solid reporters, and giving you the ad-free experience and lightning fast website you deserve.

Patriots will also be eligible for Patriots Only content, newsletters, chats and live events with our reporters and editors. It's simple: welcome us into your lives, and we'll welcome you into ours.

We can save America together.

Become a Daily Caller Patriot today.
