That vs. "do you feel lucky, punk"
A little touch of Dirty Harry in the night.
Did Mattis figure out to put a horse's head in Kim's bed?
There is a studied history of the use of power. Jimmuh never understood it.
Jimmy Carter lives in an alternate universe.
He is the main reason North Korea has nuclear weapons today, and the means to deliver them to U.S. soil.
And still this fu--ing asshole continues to voice his opinion in public.
Either the man is an agent of foreign governments, or he is perhaps the most ignorant man to draw breath since creation.
Ofc such “promises” and “obligations” were NEVER honored — Jimmy Carter inserted himself into the process and created a #FakeNews agreement which took the pressure off the Norks while giving them everything they wanted.
Their nuclear and missile programs proceeded, and Jimmy is still a doddering old fool.
I agree, but I would state it differently.
At the time there was growing pressure for the Clinton White House to take action in response to North Korea. The media had reported that Clinton could no longer overlook North Korea’s actions. Action was imminent. Carter stepped in “WITHOUT” Clinton sanction and short circuited the whole process.
Days after going to North Korea, Carter announced an agreement.
Of course this merely bought North Korea time, but it also removed the onus on Clinton to take action.
At the time it was clear, Carter went to NK without White House approval. Over time Carter’s efforts were graced in to save face for the Clinton team.
Here we are.
Now China is talking tough, but they are also demanding NK be given more time.
This is the same game plan since Clinton’s day. Ultimately NK winds up with the bomb and a means to deliver it.
If the U.S. continues to buy into this, it will deserve whatever it gets.
The Bible is replete with “Last Days” prophecy. This is the “Last Days” playing out.
Well we should thank Jimmuh since because of his surrender to the USSR people elected Reagan!
