Former NBA star Dennis Rodman ripped President Barack Obama Thursday, saying he "can't do s—" to help free Kenneth Bae, the American being held in North Korea.
"I'm gonna try and get the guy out. It's gonna be difficult," Rodman said. "We got a black president [who] can't even go talk to [Jong Un] ... Obama can't do s—, I don't know why he won't go talk to him."
Bae is a Korean-American tour operator who was arrested in North Korea in November. The country's Supreme Court sentenced him last week for unspecified "hostile acts" against the state. In a Foreign Ministry statement on Sunday, North Korea said the 44-year-old Washington state man entered the country with a disguised identity.
On Tuesday, Rodman tweeted, asking Jong Un to "do me a solid" and "cut Kenneth Bae loose."
