Trump tells the Dear Leader in Pyongyang that the U.S. Military is Locked and Loaded



The U.S. is ready with "military solutions" for the North Korea threat, President Donald Trump tweeted Friday morning, promising they are "locked and loaded," and adding, "Hopefully, Kim Jong Un will find another path."

Trump's escalating rhetoric kicked off Tuesday with a vow to meet Pyongyang's nuclear aggression with "fire and fury." On Thursday, he warned North Korea that if it "does anything" to the U.S. or its allies, "things will happen to them like they never thought possible." In contrast, Defense Secretary James Mattis said Thursday that war with North Korea would be "catastrophic" and said diplomatic efforts were yielding results.

Story

As has been commented before, the people of the Hermit Kingdom are now so poor, backward and indoctrinated in aggression that neither South Korea nor China want them and are quite happy to leave the Dear Leader's regime alone, provided it leaves them alone.  Because the media in N Korea is totally controlled by the regime and most of its citizens are unaware of what exists beyond its borders, Trump may be hoping that his firey remarks will get reported there in a hope that those further down the ranks will be made aware of how awful their government is.
