Trump's media mouthpieces are trying very hard to ignore the fact Kim called their messiah's bluff

"North Korea best not make any more threats to the United States.They will be met with fire, fury and frankly power the likes of which this world has never seen before."

-Donald Trump

Then NK threatened a strike on Guam



Ain't gonna work.

1. Yep. Drumpt's red lines got erased already.

2. There's no way this was going to work out for Trump

And anyone could see it. Kim just pantsed him in front of the world. Our allies have to be embarrassed, and our enemies are going to be emboldened beyond belief. I guess that's about as good as we could hope for, since the alternative is World War III.

3. If the stakes weren't so high I would say those two clowns and poseurs deserve on another,

4. Any good negotiator

knows better than that.

5. Chump is probably thinking to himself this guy is making me look weak, I'll show him.

6. And THAT is what scares me

As I've been vocal about here and other places: NK doesn't scare me. I view their national behavior (in the military realm) as reasonable (or at least rational) and perhaps even justifiable. If I put myself in the same place mentally, and if I was trying to be as tough as my legitimately tough grandfather (either my RL granddad or the elder Kim), I can see myself acting the exact same way.

I wouldn't want some big country -- one that I'm not culturally related to, don't share a border with, and never did anything to -- bossing me or my country around, either.

What scares me is Trump. That guy is not only dumb as a rock, but is legitimately, literally insane. He's a narcissistic sociopath. Kim Jung Un's just another run of the mill authoritarian.

7. Msnbc Just Clowned His Ass For This Very Thing...

Last Week Trump: Stop It Or Else

Kim: Fuck You You Stupid Fuck

Trump: Stop It Or Else Else- I Will Try And Scare You
With Some Fake Ass Fire And Fury Shit My Flock Will Believe.
