So if Trump is a liar by your very own metric your GOAT hero Obama is one as well and Obama had ample time to show his lack of action. As of now, you have no idea what Trump is cooking up. He didn't exactly give a timeline of when he would make good on his promise either so basically you have yet to see what he may or may not do in response to the threat(s) or to put it in simpler terms you don't have a damn clue what you are talking about! Cheers!

And if he's not then obamas not.


And I have much of an easier time saying Trump isn't a liar than y'all do saying that about Obama

What a goofball. Trump again is just playing into the hands of the dumb Trumpkins. All this "talk" is to distract from the Russia talk and to stroke his ego. He aint did shite, he aint doing shite, he aint shite and he aint gonna do shite.

No see this is where you are wrong. Obama had years to act on his red line and didn't. Here comes Trump drawing a red line and has had what, two days to respond. Big difference but of course you lefties are so eager to draw conclusions you don't care to see those differences. Furthermore if Trump immediately made good on his promise you lefries would have bitched about that too. You know good and damn well nothing will make you Trump haters happy whether it was for the nation's best interest or not. All you can muster is political concern.

As I have said...Trump could find a cure for cancer today and you folks would gripe because he didn't come up with it yesterday.

He said that there would be fire and fury like the world had never seen if North Korea threatened the United States again. Then, he went and played golf. North Korean then immediately proceeds to threaten the United States again and we are now talking about them bombing Guam. Trump wonders if he was clear enough. Says nothing else. By the way, his advisors are all running around trying to clean up the mess and say he didn't mean what he said. These aren't giant Godzilla balls. Trump got punked and doesn't know what to do.

I'm okay with Trump not responding to this empty "threat" on Guam. If we are going to strike, and I'm not convinced we should, it needs to be massive and decisive on the first blow. Kim, his nuclear and missile program AND his artillery forces north of Seoul need to all be taken out nearly simultaneously. This will require a buildup of forces prior to launching such a strike that will take more than a couple days.

Any reasonable person agrees we shouldn't react to the "threat" with force.

I think it's normal to criticize Trump for not setting better parameters in what may be a legitimate crisis, but anyone who wants to focus on him not backing it up as a source for criticism is probably a little unhinged.

Half the time I don't pay attention to the bullshite trump says.

But what I'm trying to figure out is how are nuclear program has been upgraded already since he "ordered it". That shite is a straight up lie.

Meh, if the left wants to score some cheap points by calling Trump out on this then go for it. I think it's kinda weak but whatever. I mean, Syria isn't NK. Syria doesn't pose a real threat to any of our allies like NK does so a hasty strike that isn't thought out isn't really an option.

North Korea merely announced a military contingency plan against Guam. It was not a threat.




Ok.

What a pathetic come back. I never voted for Hillary. Despise her. When Trump won, I actually felt relief that we wouldn't have Hillary as president for 4 years and we could finally forget about her. So, that was very good. Then, I looked over and realized Trump was our president and I cried a little.

Now, we have Trump the Magnificent as president and are facing a nuclear showdown with North Korea. And, thanks to Hannity, et al, I still hear about Hillary constantly as though SHE is the president. It is the worst of both worlds.

I think most understand that when Trump made the Fire and fury statement that he meant that "if" North Korea is stupid enough to act upon their "threats" that the U.S. will take powerful and decisive action. Trump is surrounded by very capable advisors (Mattis,Kelly, McMaster etc) who will steer him in the right direction. And if the need arises to use force then you had better believe it will be overwhelming to NK and little Kimmy.
