US President Donald Trump unleashed a Twitter storm from his Asia tour yesterday, slamming "haters and fools" playing politics with US-Russia ties and declaring that he would never describe North Korean leader Kim Jong-Un as "short and fat". Trump took a fresh swipe at critics of his efforts to forge a close working relationship with Putin. "When will all the haters and fools out there realise that having a good relationship with Russia is a good thing, not a bad thing," he tweeted, adding, "There (sic) always playing politics — bad for our country.
