New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie knocked both President Obama and Democratic presidential front-runner Hillary Clinton for the “weak response” in the years leading up to North Korea’s latest nuclear weapon test.
“Three out of the four nuclear detonations that the North Koreans have done have happened under Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton’s watch,” Christie said during an appearance on “Fox and Friends” Wednesday morning.
“They have just not acted strongly at all around the world. This is just another example — piled on top of Iran, on top of Syria, on top Crimea and Ukraine … this is what weak American leadership gets you,” the Republican presidential hopeful added.

North Korea announced late Tuesday night that the seismic activity near one of its nuclear plants was not an earthquake, but rather a successful hydrogen bomb test.
The White House, the North Atlantic Treaty Organization and numerous countries have condemned the reported test.
