Kim Jong-un says he has a ‘nuclear launch button’ on his desk in threat to America

KIM Jong-un has brought in the new year with an alarming escalation in his threats against the rest of the world.

During a televised New Year’s Day speech, the dictator said the US would never be able to start a war with the rogue nation after it had developed the ability to hit all of the American mainland with its nuclear weapons.

“The entire United States is within range of our nuclear weapons, and a nuclear button is always on my desk. This is reality, not a threat,” Kim said.

The speech is being watched closely, as Kim Jong-un followed up on promises he made during his 2017 New Year’s Day address, when he vowed to speed up the country’s nuclear weapons development.

The main problem isn’t his nukes, its his artillery within range of seoul. I wonder if we have enough air (and other) assets to neutralize in a sneak attack. If so, then they’re toast.

More accurately, it was likely a, “Nukrear Raunch Button.”

Kim is begging to be attacked. Why?

Trump needs to explain to Jung Un that the “launch button” on Un’s desk, is actually the magic button for a one-way eternal trip to hell. Press that button, and some people in the U.S. MAY indeed be killed. But if you DO press it, YOUR trip to hell is GUARANTEED.

And we continue to give Kim rope and more rope to hang himself with.

Do we know how long the rope is or do we find ourselves suddenly facing an incoming ICBM?

MSNBC should offer enough money and 24/7 all one can eat for his own show.

Within a month he’d be forgotten about.

That is South Korea's problem. Let them deal with it.
America's problem is NK pointing ICBMs at the US.

He wants money. Not war. He blew all his money on war.

I hate to break it to you, Rocket Boy...but, that’s not a “nuclear” button...it’s your desk lamp.
