The former president's boast isn't sitting well with his critics.
Donald Trump is coming under fire for bragging about how well he got along with North Korean dictator Kim Jong Un.
The former president told podcaster Tim Pool that his predecessor, Barack Obama, had warned him that North Korea was the “single greatest threat” facing the nation.
But Trump said he turned it around with his personal approach to Kim.
“It boiled down to something that was very beautiful, the way it happened, and I got along with him very well,” Trump said in an interview released on Monday, claiming that if Hillary Clinton had won in 2016 the world instead would have faced nuclear war.
Trump noted he and Kim exchanged insults early on, but then their relationship “morphed.”
