Several butt hurt republicans ITT. Obama has some things you can criticize him on, but being tough with terrorists/rogue nations isn't one of them
As for the NK situation, it's an interesting one. China has propped this regime up for so long. I think initially it was for ideological reasons but now it's b\c they don't want the humanitarian disaster on their doorstep if the regime falls. If it comes down to it, China will side with us over NK IMO. Most of this behavior is par for the course for NK, but the wild card in all this is KJU. He's a 29 or 30 yo guy who's grown up his whole life living in that bizzaro world. Who knows how mentally stable he is or how stupid he is, impulsive, etc. His dad was a douche and a little unbalanced, but not a moron. Not sure we can say the same thing about this guy. We'd win in a fight, no question. But I'd hope (as always) we can avoid a war at all cost. We're winding down Afghanistan and Iraq and have spent so much in people/money there. NK is a mountainous country that gets cold as hell in the winter. Despite all the tech we have, you still have to put boots on the ground and men/women in harms way. Hopefully they can settle this without resorting to force, but this idiot may not give us any choice unfortunately.
