 So is Trump still causing war with N. Korea? |
Resident Skeptic |
I seem to remember some poster on here creating a "Trump has really done it this time!" type thread, hysterically and irrationally sounding the alarm that Trump's strong words to Kim were about to bring on a nuclear holocaust.
How does that crow taste along with that egg on your face?

| He is to be commended for his leadership in this matter, however, Dennis Rodman takes credit. 😂 |

Why would they eat crow if they think Trump's approach was inappropriate? You could see Trump's approach as a high stakes gambling game with the stake's being a major advancement of diplomacy with North Korea and possibly an official end to the Korean War on the other, and on the other hand, the risk of attacks on Hawaii or countries we are on friendly terms with like Japan and South Korea. As a former resident of Hawaii, I can tell you the idea of risking attacks on Hawaii is not pleasant for the people there.
North Korean diplomacy has long consisted of obnoxious boasts and threats, the idea being that even if they are strong and weak, they are crazy enough to inflict enough damage on you that you do not want to attack them. You could argue that pushing back and calling their president on his bluff by returning with harsh rhetoric would not result in nuclear war or other type of major attack. But what if he really is a bit crazy and has enough control over his military to launch the attack? Even if it worked out for Trump, one could still think his approach was too risky.
If Trump wanted to go a bit further to the extreme, he could say that threats of attacks on the US or its allies would be met with military force, then drop bombs on nuclear or other military facilities in Iran or North Korean the next time the heads of state ran their mouths. That probably would not sit well with the international community, but it might force certain heads of state to tone down their rhetoric.

The meme showed some woman weeping profusely. It something like:
"I wanted North Korea to nuke us so we could blame Trump." |
