Let’s hope he doesn’t accidentally hit the button when he knocks his bowl of ice cream off his desk.

Trump still pissing off all the right people.

I'm in no way shape or form advocating for any "talks" with NK. I think that's ship has sailed. Not to mention, any peace talks or sanctions are always mitigated by NK on some level by their under the table dealings with China and on a smaller scale, Russia.

I do have to question Trump's tweet here though. KJU sent his tweet or used the news or whatever to make his silly statement of bravado about having a button on his desk. Who cares? I think if Trump really felt the need to have to respond to that it could have been something like, "Cool KJU, you have a button. Good job little fella." I felt that (and I'm paraphrasing here), "I also have a button and it's bigger than yours and works better than yours." sounded too much like my two kids arguing with each other.

My reasoning is this, with all the strides Trump has made in the last few weeks including less ridiculous tweets, new tax law, job approval rising, etc... he could have just walked up to a microphone and when a journo asked him about KJU's statement, he could have shrugged his shoulders and said, "It's KJU. If he's dumb enough to push a button and start a war, we'll finish it for him." Something harsh, to the point, but doesn't sound like an 8 year old.

As of right now though, Trump still has my vote in 2020. While I may think his tactics are somewhat childish sometimes, he's been quite effective in getting things done that I'm in favor of.

Also, I have a sneaky suspicion that KJU timed his outburst and baited Trump to get the media heat off of China being caught with delivering oil to NK, twice. Just odd that he's been quiet, that finally hits the media, and then a ridiculous outburst that grabs all the media attention.

It's simple unless you spent 8 years licking Obama's rear end and can't come up with anything good. So you try to deflect. But that deflection pretty much admits it.

Dude, you're being ******* ridiculous.
If he's talking economy...the stock market boomed, right? So it was good. We weren't attacked...so that was good. NK ended up getting a deliverable bomb...so that could be considered bad for us...or good according to some looking to start another cold war.
Sorry, but I'm not going to ascertain what twisted thoughts are running through the mind of that troll...so he needs to provide a little more before I waste any more time on him.

Umm, I think you just proved my point. The stock market bombed because of how Obama handled North Korea? Really? You are really stretching beyond reason to prop up your hero. I know you didn't agree with everything he did, but you were very firmly in his camp.

No we were not attacked, because he did not have the means to do so. But we stood idly by and watched him acquire those means.

NO OWL! I was making a point based on what Kronke posted...basically claiming a blip in the market meant war with NK was off the table or whatever he was trying to claim.

And sorry, but I'm pretty sure you weren't in the camp of military action in Asia to keep them from getting a bomb, right? Since that was the only possible option besides diplomacy.

Wait, who advocated military action? That was one hack of a straw man.

Trump has said countless times that his foreign engagement would be shrouded in unpredictability. The fact that many think he is a madman and the media is playing along tells me he is accomplishing that. A madman is exactly what he wants Rocketman to think he is.
