  1. I watched CBC and their expert commentators . ( professors of course ) . According to them , Donald doesn’t understand the fine nuances of diplomacy . The overlying message was Donald was out to destroy NK. They kind of neglectited he was speaking of consequences of an attack . I guess some one else missed the “nuance ” . What Donald missed is that he is supposed to offer concessions and send money . Because that is the diplomacy that has been working so well .

  2. Sounds like a riff on the old Get Smart show
    UN: do you think we should send in two boy scouts and a row boat?
    Trump: No.
    UN: do you think we should send in a legion hall on a rusty freighter?
    Trump: No.
    UN: do you think we should send in an obsolete Canadian supply ship and crew?
    Trump: No.
    UN: then what do you suggest?
    Trump: I’ll send in the US 6th fleet and we will nuke em.

  3. Can’t wait to see how Trump speech juxtapositions to leisuresiut Larry’s.
    I guess Juthtins can stop planning on a seat on the security council if the means test is stepping up to the plate.

  4. Heh.
    Ol’ Hillary is likely pissed off at Trump calling L’il Kim “Rocket Man” because she figures Billy deserves that title from back in the 60s when they were both smokin’ but not inhalin’.
    And she figures SHE makes Vladmir agitated. Holy Mackerel, if that was true, imagine the effect Melania must have on the poor little fella.

  5. Yep, Hilliar is going to froth on about her stunning diplomatic successes in LYBIA for example!
    She can do so much better, as in BENGHAZI…
    Hurricanes and earthquakes do a better job of diplomacy than HRC; at least they are equal opportunity killers.
    “What Happened?” you ask? HRC is a national disaster area, that’s what happened.

  6. The United Nations. Now less than 50% of it’s members are democracies and they are trying very hard to lower that # even further. In a demonstration of truth in advertising, the UN should change it’s name to United Anti-Democracies.
    Trump’s America is currently to the UN what white men are to Social Justice Warriors.

  7. Heh, I wonder if that’s before or after he makes America great again…

    Asked immediately afterward about his message for the New York trip, Trump riffed off his 2016 presidential campaign slogan: “I think the main message is ‘Make the United Nations Great’ – not ‘Again’,” he said.
    Jer 17:5  Thus saith the LORD; Cursed be the man that trusteth in man, and maketh flesh his arm, and whose heart departeth from the LORD. 

  8. The goal should not be to nuke North Korea back to the Stone Age, the goal should be to free the hostages (i.e, the entire population of that country) from the dictatorship. Something like “Truth and Reconciliation” with a negotiated end of the regime is preferable to War if that’s possible, but if War is necessary, so be it.

  9. WHAT?
    This whole time I thought that God-awful green tile wall behind the UN speaker was massive and now I see it’s no larger than a regular countertop. Good grief.
    The thing looks like crap. It’s like mirror tiles. People in mobile homes have more sense than put up 12″ granite tiles. It says, “this is a dopey place for dopes.”

  10. Doesn’t the man have any friends trying to talk him out of his suicide mission ?
    Last I heard his “friends” were sent down range to dance with a .50 cal, or RPG.

  11. one of them, just one of them, even a ‘miss’ coming from n korea, well, the truth could very well be that total annihilation of their nuke capability is the only thing that works.
    I am convinced of that and that the US has long ago initiated a system of round-the-clock observations from a variety of sources, including those of the utmost secrecy, of the moment to moment status of their nuke toys, and countermeasures constantly updated.
    imagine 1,000 cruise missiles launched over the course of oh, no more than the same day smashing everything painted caomoflage green and then hitting the priority targets 2nd and 3rd time to be sure.
    including MOABs and such. and tactical field nukes, the ultimate tit-for-tat.
    President Trump will never be accused of failing to warn them.
    this from Harry Truman in a vaguely similar situation: “a rain of ruin the likes of which”.
    p.s. I agree with nv53, no need whatsoever to wreck the whole country, just their military. all of it.
    for practice if that rationale works for ya.

  12. We already bombed them back into the stone age, remember the Korean war.
    Now we just need to get rid of the ruling family.
    Talk about a target of opportunity.
    The place is a giant prison camp.
    Cut the head off, and there indeed might be joyous crowds in the streets.
