Would Trump do the unthinkable and go to war with North Korea?

[Rustic]

Can any RW on here make an argument saying "no Trump wouldn't do something that stupid."?

No you cannot. You all know we are dealing with an impulsive moron so anything could happen.

I guess some cons would be all for it because they blindly support anything this idiot does or says.

Trump - in his usual caveman bluster - lobbed a crazy threat at NK that will literally accomplish nothing to deter Un's actions going forward. He's not afraid of Trump. None of our enemies are. Putin, ISIS, and NK's regime think he is a moron. Why is it so hard for Trumpsters to accept this?

The transgender that is little Kim is bluffing no doubt… All bark and no bite

NK continually bombards us with vile threats and provocations. We should have destroyed their leadership and ability to wage strategic war long since. We certainly need to do so before they can actually accomplish what they threaten. Being overly timid has only made things worse.

 

[Slyhunter]

Maybe we should give SK nukes.

Tell China either use their military to stop NK, or we will arm up SK.

That would be a violation of international law.

No it wouldn't.

North Korea Produces Miniaturized Nuclear Warhead, Report Says

Are you dumb enough to actually believe they just started working on miniaturizing nukes in the past 6 months? Sorry, but this is all on your weak leader Obama.

Imagine North Korea we're doing what he is doing now. What would you have Obama do?

Well you don't have to imagine you are in charge. Nothing different from last year other than lil Kim is really disrespecting Trump. So it's time for you Republicans to put your money where your mouth is. What ya gonna do? You're looking weak

Maybe we should give SK nukes.

My brothers take on this. This all started after ww2. Japan used to treat china like shit. They hate each other. So we didn't allow Japan to have a military and we allowed China to become the superpower on that side of the world. So Kim Jung fucking with Japan now and China couldn't give a shit.

So what was Obama to do? Republicans find themselves in a position where they're in charge and they want to now blame previous presidents.

But last year Republicans said if they were in charge they wouldn't look weak. Well now we see Obama did exactly what the Republicans would have done and that's nothing.

Only Republicans never eat their words. It's amazing how fast they can flip flop and forgive themselves

Wrong.

Simpletons always want to believe in simple things. The roots of the current situation go back further than WWII. Hell, after WWII Japan was in no position to treat anyone like shit. When they experienced their great economic growth they began providing a great deal of aid to an undeveloped China.

 

[Unkotare]

"So we didn't allow Japan to have a military" is something the ignorant repeat constantly because they heard it somewhere.

Yeah but if Japan wouldn't have started WW2 they'd still be ruling Asia and North Korea would be under Japan's rule. This is assuming Japan never did Pearl harbor.

So my brother is right. Japan changed everything by starting WW2.

So how does it go back farther than WW2? Before WW2 Japan ruled over Asia. What bigger happened than WW2?

And you can always say something goes back farther than one event. Well you're the Asian expert tell us the history. Educate us master.

Fact is Chinese and Japanese people hate each other. People think they are kind and peaceful but they have hatred in their hearts like Pakistani and indians hate each other

Absurd. This kind of ignorance about history is why it is so difficult to take any such discussion seriously. The above nonsense assumes that China's civil war would never have ended or that no political changes would have taken place in Japan itself, among a thousand other factors.

Ignorant over-generalization. The Chinese and Japanese governments do not get along. Most educated individuals see the reason in moving forward together (but not forgetting history).

They are in some ways less civilized. I wish Japan didn't Pearl harbor us and instead partnered with us.

No Japan wouldn't have allowed China to become what it is today. No way

Wow, Japan and China don't like each other. Go figure. Do you think Japan going to war with China had anything to do with those feelings?

After WWII, we had no control over China whatsoever. Japan surrendered unconditionally after we dropped the two atomic bombs.

Petulant former President Barack Hussein Obama so desperately wanted an agreement with Iran, no matter how weak, he stupidly ignored North Korea allowing them eight years to advance their nuclear and missile capabilities.

NORTH KOREA
Obama administration knew about North Korea's miniaturized nukes

By Fred FleitzPublished August 09, 2017
Fox News

Tuesday's bombshell Washington Post story that the Defense Intelligence Agency (DIA) has determined North Korea is capable of constructing miniaturized nuclear weapons that could be used as warheads for missiles – possibly ICBMs – left out a crucial fact: DIA actually concluded this in 2013. The Post also failed to mention that the Obama administration tried to downplay and discredit this report at the time.

During an April 11, 2013, House Armed Services Committee hearing, Congressman Doug Lamborn, R-Colo., inadvertently revealed several unclassified sentences from a DIA report that said DIA had determined with “moderate confidence” that North Korea has the capability to make a nuclear weapon small enough to be launched with a ballistic missile.

The Director of National Intelligence and Obama officials subsequently tried to dismiss Lamborn’s disclosure by claiming the DIA assessment was an outlier that did not reflect the views of the rest of the U.S. Intelligence Community.

Obama officials tried to downplay the DIA assessment to prevent it from being used to force the president to employ a more assertive North Korea policy.

It was clear what Obama officials were doing in 2013. The DIA report represented inconvenient facts that threatened President Obama’s North Korea “strategic patience” policy -- a policy to do nothing about North Korea and kick this problem down the road to the next president. Obama officials tried to downplay the DIA assessment to prevent it from being used to force the president to employ a more assertive North Korea policy.

China won't allow their feelings about Japan to hinder their long-term plan.

China cannot afford to cripple their trade with the United States.

North Korea is already seeing long gas lines due to the drastically increased sanctions approved by both China and Russia.

Unlike petulant former President Barack Hussein Obama, President Trump will not ignore North Korea and pretend they don't intend to go to war.

Japan had been teaching their people to be warriors for decades. Their goal was world dominance. How the heck would Japan join the allies when the allies were specifically who Japan was sworn to defeat?

I can't understand why the left seems to be chiding President (how they hate that word!) Trump for restraining himself re. nuking Rocket Man. After all, they want to live in a society as perfected by their favorite "thinker". Y'know - one who eliminates the need for them, individually, to think at all.
