Donald Trump’s attempted dig at the leader of North Korea on Twitter hasn’t quite gone to plan.

Following the country’s latest test missile launch, the US President sent a tweet criticising Kim Jong-un, asking: “Does this guy have anything better to do with his life?”

North Korea has just launched another missile. Does this guy have anything better to do with his life? Hard to believe that South Korea.....

The people of Twitter have responded, but probably not in the way he’d have liked them to.

Do you have anything better to do than egging on WW3 on Twitter? Celebrating USA's B-Day? Or working in the situation room?

donald trump has just launched another dumb tweet. Does this guy have anything better to do with his life? Hard to believe that...

Some pointed out the pure irony of the criticism taking place on Twitter.

You TWEETING "Does this guy have anything better to do with his life?" is the absolute height of irony!

Haha does irony even register in Donald Trump's head? A game show host who stole the presidency and now mainly tweets drivel https://t.co/ChZWMLNwIB

This is the pot calling the kettle Kim Jong Un.

I mean don't you have something better to do than tweet? Like maybe be President?

While others have brought up some of the questionable choices he has made during his presidency.

Same could be asked of Trump. He has spent more of his presidency watching TV, rage tweeting, and playing golf than any of his predecessors

Says the guy that thinks being 'president' is tweeting doctored wrestling videos.

We doubt it will put him off tweeting again though.
