Trump got the ball rolling with Kim.  Should he lose in November it should be interesting to see how the next guy/gal approaches NK issues.

Rolling where?

He did not."get the ball rolling". He caved and gave NK something they wanted,*,. 66/ and which successive Presidents of both parties have withheld. For nothing. NK played his amateur ass.

Cowards like Kid can’t shoot straight. When they snap, they tend to miss their targets a lot and hit a bunch of bystanders.

Some of the discussion about dry wall penetration and preferred ammunition when shooting folks in your home were interesting.

Some of the paranoia is impressive too.
One commentator professes to always having a handgun strapped to his person even in his own home.  Another talk aboutangry mob attacks including some with a "baseball bat wrapped in barbed wire."  Seems like some folks maybe watching too many movies.  Or perhaps there are home invasions with barbed-wire Louisville Sluggers I'm unaware of . . .

Best to fill the home invading rapists/bashists/killers full of lead with minimum damage to the home's walls etc.

China obviously 'owns' NK...so it's China that should be held accountable.

Trump, the Great Negotiator, got played.

Seems to be.
At least he tried.
Because he tried, now we know exactly what's what.
Best to ignore the place and everyone in it...make China responsible.

Australia should now get nukes, and aim them at Beijing and Shanghai.
Any NK nukes/missiles of any type start landing on Terra Australia, Beijing and Shanghai should get some presents..

Here's a perfect example of why bambu-wisdom, ...a White, heterosexual, Christian male. will never ever ever be setting foot in Iran.
It's their sovereign nation and they can do with you as they please.
...and will.

http://www.msn.com/en-au/news/australia/australian-academic-locked-up-in-iran-begs-scott-morrison-to-fight-for-her-freedom-as-she-goes-on-hunger-strike-after-15-months-behind-bars/ar-BBYhgrn?li=AAgfYrC&OCID=AVRES000

Australian academic locked up in Iran begs Scott Morrison to fight for her freedom as she goes on hunger strike after 15 months behind bars

1/5 SLIDES © Provided by Daily Mail
Dr Kylie Moore-Gilbert has written to the Prime Minister as her fight for freedom continues.

A British-Australian academic behind bars in one of Iran's most notorious prisons has begged Scott Morrison for help in another desperate bid for freedom.
Political prisoner Kylie Moore-Gilbert has penned a heart-wrenching letter to the Prime Minister, which was smuggled out of Evin prison in Tehran, where she has been detained in solitary confinement for the past 15 months.

It comes after a recent crushing blow, when the University of Melbourne lecturer and Middle East expert lost an appeal against her 10-year jail sentence for spying charges.
'Please I beg of you to do whatever it takes to get me out,' reads one letter to the Prime Minister, a devout Hillsong Church member.
'I know that you're a religious man and I ask that until that much-longed for freedom arrives, you remember me and my family in your prayers.'
 She has been a University of Melbourne employee since 2006, most recently as a lecturer in Islamic Studies.

Prisoners held in solitary confinement are detained in Cells are just 1.5m by 2.5m have no bed and no windows with sleep made difficult by lights left on 24 hours a day, and three blankets to use as a mattress, pillow, and warmth.

They are also denied contact with their families.


#####

They must really hate her, the flower of Aussie womanhood.

If she'd asked bambu before she went there he would've advised her not to, never to, never ever ever to.
bambu is a Middle East expert.
Wisdom says..."If you don't belong there, stay away"...bad things can happen to you there, particularly Christian westerners.

Of course if you say anything you'll likely be branded 'racist', 'xenophobic', 'Islamophobic'...including by people in the West.

That's what Trump has been full of, all the way along, from his love affair with KJU to his deep knowledge of windmills.

Oh, suggesting we nuke them, instead of NK?

China has been trying to rein in NK with little more success than we have had. They don't want a nuke-enabled KJU much more than we do.

I love the DoJ's position: They say SCOTUS shouldn't even rule on the McGahn case, as to rule that he should testify would look like an anti-Trump bias...
