This is a case of the two biggest bullies

trying to prove how tough they are. They insult each other and then call each other out after school.

Do I think North Korea should be dealt with? Yes. BUT never by another bully who just wants to prove he is tougher.

This is what I think most people who want to take care of NK are missing, the absolute fact that tRump is NOT fit to lead a military campaign against any country.

Trump is absolutely who you would pick.

that's how he bulldozes through life, with little to no concern about "at what cost".

there was a fight everyday after school. After three weeks, all the toughness had been proven and we could move on. That was in a gun toting, redneck town in western CO, where everyone owned at least one gun. But never once did any of the bullies think to bring a gun to prove how tough he was. For that, at least, I was thankful. Maybe we should let Li'l Donnie duke it out with Kim Jong Un. Choose a vacant lot for them to rumble.

North Korea is a totalitarian shithole run by one of the worst regimes on the planet. If it were easy or simple to get regime change there, it would be great.

But unfortunately there are no good and obvious solutions, and right now we have absolutely the worst people in DC in charge of the question.
