We should keep those assets there. The next time fat boy has a parade, we send him a present via cruise missle.

OK, assuming everything goes according to his plan & he knocks out the electricity in mainland USA, wouldn’t we have enough firepower outside the US, particularly on ships at his back door, to still wipe him out in seconds?

The globalist intend to prevail...By any means necessary. Trump is that big of a treat to the new world order. This may be Trump’s Kobayashi Maru.

The west coast is where the launch facilities are.

We aren’t going to do shit except play around at the UN.

The U.S. is faking.

Why the west coast? Aren’t all their potential targets off the east coast?

They want to target India? China seems to be having issues with India. Maybe China will let Kim Chi launch one over their airspace at Mumbai.

Kim Jong-un is calling our bluff. He’s going to make us a laughing stock...because that’s what our politicians have made us.

Syria probably thought Trump was bluffing, too, until the cruise missiles came raining down.

I think we can take the first shot. We have to do it quick and it would have to be an awesome show of force that was over quick. It would have to destroy,disable or cause surrender in an hour. We would have to stay out as far as ground forces go. During this china needs to understand we will drop a hundred nukes on them if they blink but they get to keep the rare earth minerals in North Korea. The big problems are how do you evaluate Soel and do you think we would really use tactical nukes to begin with.

Nope, send in a multiple re-entry and turn the whole GD area into a pile of rubble. How many in a MRV? 5? That’d do it.

He would get a warning with a cruise. Flies to low and to slow.

The United States has become a paper dragon. The trannies of geo-politics.

If by "first shot" you mean have some assassinate Kim before the SHTF, then I agree.

That’s why it could also be a good “teaching moment. “

I would like to point out to you the excellent Roosewelt quote posted by hapnHal:

Franklin D. Roosevelt Quote:

“When you see a rattlesnake poised to strike, you do not wait until he has struck to crush him. “

20 cruise missiles on one airfield. And where is Syria today...exactly the same place. Trump won’t do anything but go to the U.N. The globalist shave check-mated him. He has zero support in the U.S. government, which is still ruled by the Establishment. They are turning him into a eunuch. You want to returnthe U.S. to a Republic? You need a revolution of destruction. Otherwise, you’re just playing Soros’ game.

If you read the conditions/problems of my first shot idea you should probably pick up how amazing unlikely it would be.
