The Washington Post reported that North Korea’s visit to Cuba occurs as Pyongyang’s largest trading partners announced they would halt trade with the isolated nation. Singapore—North Korea’s seventh largest trading partner–announced it would sever its trade with the country Thursday, while the Philippines—Pyongyang’s fifth largest trading partner—is following suit.

I guess we’d better put both Alaska AND Florida on alert!

Please, PLEASE! Lob one missile our way, Lil’ Kim!

Trust me. It’ll be the LAST thing you ever do! You’re not dealing with 0bama anymore.

What if they transfer a missile to Cuba? How much warning would we have?

What it was an EMP over Pennsylvania or Chicago?

Exactly! I posted numerous times, in 2016, that if our enemies didn’t act against us during and before B-HO left, then they were utterly stupid. No one did.

I’d love to see “rocket man” in Castro’s back yard.

It’d be a twofer.

If Republicans followed the Obama-Clinton -Alinsky strategies used over their 8 years in power, we would simply say: that’s a few million less white folk who are lefties.And illegal immigration would stop.

They probably don’t have enough fuel to get them to Cuba.

Newsweek is delusional. Now they are spouting the new leftist line about a New Cold War, though Pat Buchanan had a long column about the same thing.

We’ve been in a “new Cold War” since the 1990’s re Russia and continually since 1950 with Red China and No. Korea (only that period was a “Hot Cold War” with real blood spilled).

Communism, by doctrine, is continually at war with “imperialism, capitalism, and religion”. Hasn’t changed since Marx and Hegel began to refine the thoughts about communism/Marxism/progressivism.

That fat little F**k needs to make friends with his ultimate destiny of oblivion, before he puts us all through it.
