THE HE IN THIS STORY IS NONE OTHER THAN DONALD TRUMP AND THE HOUSE OWNER IS NORTH KOREA'S RULER FOR LIFE KIM ...the YOUNG-UN.
And I guess from recent events, Young-un Kim's home must be made out of brick because for all Trump's huffing and puffing, his house is still standing.
When The Donald was on the campaign trail and even well into his Presidency, he was regularly quoted on what he was going to do the Young-un if he did not cease and desist from perfecting Nuclear Tipped ICBMs that could reach the United States.
Why he was going to tear the Young-un limb from limb...totally destroy his war making ability and that was just a start.
But as they say, that was then and this is now. 'Now' meaning North Korea has recently shown itself able to successfully launch such dreaded ICBMs.
So what does President Trump's latest threats to the Young-un consist of? Why there are going to be more sanctions imposed on North Korea, more harsh resolutions emanating from the United Nations and most recently Trump has ....are you ready for this...added North Korea to the list of countries that sponsor terrorism.
I think you will no doubt agree with me that these new measures will likely cause Kimmie to collapse with spasms of paralytic inertia.
Or you just might say, if threats of bodily injury and death did not make a dent in his determination to acquire these dangerous weapons why would hollow threats about ineffective sanctions and resolutions and laughable sponsor lists have any greater effect?
And a good point you'd make.
Trump, if you can believe it, is even talking about more negotiations with China and with North Korea even though heretofore he rightly pointed out that such negotiations were worthless since they have been ineffective throughout past decades and several American Administrations of various stripes.
So what gives?
I am not sure but I do know that if North Korea is permitted to have nuclear weapons this will extend to Iran and a new nuclear armament race will be launched the likes of which we have never seen before.
And I know something else as well. If President Trump persists in this weak line of attack against North Korea, his credibility will be critically diminished.
As I see it...
