SO jake? what should we do?

Go to war?

there is a major gap between "go to war" and "hide and accept a nuclear NK"

and to answer your question: diplomacy. we have to project strength (not hide from it) and ensure, via China, that NK does not have nuclear weapons. we have to pressure China, both publicly and economically, into solving this solution. the ideal solution is for the US, China, and SK to manufacture regime change that is palatable for SK/China

Trying to get China to solve the problem is the failed strategy of the last presidencies you just criticized.

China has no interest in an American puppet state near their borders. And it is also roundly believed that many overstate the ability and capacity for China to influence North Korea at this point. Nuclear weapons are their survval card in their minds.

Sure, but the only way we ensure that they don't is war
