>>>So now this situation with North Korea seems to be getting rather serious - and I don't have much faith in Trump's ability to deal with the situation without starting WW3. Quite alarming. SURELY folks don't still think voting for him was not a mistake and that HRC was the obvious better pick? Like whats it gonna take? A nuke goin off in populated area or what?
>>>I do not think he will last the 4 years of his term - just hope the rest of us do.

>>Victor, regardless of whether this country elected Trump or HRC, North Korea would still be making miniaturized nuclear warheads, testing ballistic missiles capable of hitting the U.S., threatening to use them, and would still be planning more tests. Regardless of Trump's flaws, he's not the problem here.

>>This is a classic example of "blame America first"

>I wasn't suggesting that North Korea wouldn't be developing nukes if HRC was in office. What I'm saying is that Trump is handling it like an idiot and lacks the skills to deal with the problem - as matter of fact he's just making matters much worse with his ignorant statements and threats. It's one thing for N.K. to have nukes - it's another for them to actually use them and flatten Guam or Hawaii because they were provoked and threatened by our president. "...North Korea best not make any more threats to the United States. They will be met with fire and fury like the world has never seen...." -- really? What kind of moron is this guy? Who says such stupid crap? USA is a superpower and superpowers are known not to bluff so this type of statement is beyond stupid and quite dangerous. Trump is simply unqualified to assist with any type of diplomatic solution to this - and that is what we need or they're going to start lobbing nukes towards us - and I'm closer than you are.

Compare Trump's statements with some of the statements Reagan made during the Cold War
