Actually, he's probably worse than that.
Way to stand shoulder to shoulder, the ******g blockhead!Quote:

"Put on hold" says the headline, but if the story is true then it will never happen.Quote:

He'll be gone before the end of the year.
Trump is dodging bullets - metaphorically speaking.
His lowest point was that speech a couple of days ago to the Boy Scouts of America. Why is he still talking about the size of his inauguration crowd? What a complete and total roaster. theres no doubt in my mind he's a jambo through and through.
Scaramucci. :greengrin

Jeez... That administration seems to be a complete shambles, I'm actually surprised that many of Trumps followers haven't turned on him yet.... Is it just they don't believe what they are hearing?Quote:

North Korea respond by threatening to strike Guam.
I know we've had rhetoric and sabre rattling from the North Koreans for years, but this feels like it's escalating well beyond that!
If the north fired any sort of missile towards guam, would there be a north korea left?Quote:

China have a big role to play here as the North's only ally, and they need to be unequivocal in their condemnation of current rhetoric.
There is no real evidence, except from unspecified concerns from American and Japanese intelligence agencies, that the NK has developed the capability to fire a long distance missile capable of hitting the US. Far less the technical ability to have a warhead attached. I'm very sceptical that this is going to be anymore than the usual aggressive verbals. My main concern is why the danger and rhetoric is being talked up. Who's to benefit? Just calm the **** down.
Seoul or Tokyo doesn't want a preemptive strike, and while of course while no one really knows what the North wants, they are not the lunatics that the caricatures would have you believe. Trump is a businessman and he knows two of the world's richest cities in flames won't help his bottom line. No one really wants war. I think.
Agreed. Personally I think it's all a shakedown.Quote:

I heard an interview last week in which the observation was made that although NK have made strides in their technology, even when they develop the capability to fire a missile and reach the US, for the time being it would be comparable to lobbing stones over a wall, and that will remain the case until they develop a reliable long range guidance. If that's true then I'm not sure they would have the capability right now to actually hit Guam.Quote:

A fact which is not often discussed in the media. They are surrounded by countries who developed nuclear weapons before deciding to tell everyone else they were a bad thing. Which of course they are.Quote:
