Dennis Rodman Rips President Obama Over North Korea; 'Celebrity Apprentice' Star Says President "Can't Do S*it"

The unofficial American ambassdor to North Korea has spoken once again. Dennis Rodman has publicly slammed President Barack Obama for his handling of issues in North Korea. The 'Celebrity Apprentice' star Rodman has decided it is his responsibility to try to free Kenneth Bae, a Korean-American man sentenced to 15 years of hard labor in North Korea last week.

Rodman took to Twitter in an attempt to speak directly to North Korean leader Kim Jong Un and also continue to bash Obama.

"I'm calling on the Supreme Leader of North Korea or as I call him "Kim", to do me a solid and cut Kenneth Bae loose," tweeted Rodman.

Rodman also spoke with TMZ yesterday, claiming that he is simply reaching out to Un because Obama refuses to do so in order to have Bae released.

"Obama can't do s--t, I don't know why he won't go talk to him," said Rodman.

Rodman made headlines two months ago when he went to North Korea as part of a youth basketball initiative with the Harlem Globetrotters. He and Un spoke at great length throughout the visit, making Rodman the first American that the North Korean leader has had direct contact. Afterwards, he ignited controversy by praising the North Korean tyrant and referring to him as a great man.

"I don't condone what he does, but he's my friend," said Rodman.

Rodman said he will return to North Korea for a vacation with Un on August 1, and will also attempt to facilitate Bae's release on the trip. Last month, Rodman visited the Vatican in an attempt to meet with the Pope.

Rodman competed on this season of All-Star Celebrity Apprentice, but was unceremoniously fired in the fifth episode. However, Donald Trump praised him for staying sober after alcohol-related issues plagued his initial appearance on the show.
