Sarah Sanders Says Trump and Kim ‘Agree in Their Assessment’ of Biden

President Trump and the North Korean leader, Kim Jong-un, “agree” in their negative assessment of former Vice President Joseph R. Biden Jr., the White House press secretary, Sarah Huckabee Sanders, said on Sunday.

Ms. Sanders, in an interview on NBC’s “Meet the Press,” also defended the president’s approach to efforts to denuclearize North Korea and deflected questions about whether Mr. Trump’s declaration of “treason” had predetermined the outcome of a review of the Russia investigation’s roots.

On Saturday, Mr. Trump seemed gratified that North Korea’s state media had described Mr. Biden, the Democratic candidate he views as the biggest threat to him in 2020, as a “fool of low IQ.”
