Video: Here is how Trump's right hand man reacted to president's threat against North Korea
John Kelly’s reaction to President Donald Trump’s speech in the United Nations General Assembly became one of the main talking points on social media Tuesday. The president's Chief of Staff was seen with his head in his hand and looking down at the floor as Trump made "totally destroy" remarks and mocked North Korean leader as "rocket man".
US President Donald Trump on Tuesday vowed to “totally destroy” North Korea in a most direct threat to attack Pyongyang.
According to Reuters, his comments rattled the world leaders gathered before him in the green-marbled UN General Assembly hall, where minutes earlier UN Secretary-General Antonio Guterres had appealed for statesmanship.
