BEDMINSTER, N.J. — President Donald Trump issued a new threat to North Korea on Thursday, demanding that Kim Jong Un's government "get their act together" or face extraordinary trouble. He said his previous "fire and fury" warning to Pyongyang might have been too mild.

"Maybe that statement wasn't tough enough," Trump said in the latest round of an escalating exchange of threats between the two nuclear-armed nations.

Speaking to reporters in New Jersey, Trump said North Korea has been "getting away with a tragedy that can't be allowed."
