Trumps first gambit. We’re going to put our dukes up. Such a publicly bellicose style. It may give them [the asian threat] pause, but not for long if we keep screwing around in the middle east.

Japan Holds Missile Attack Drill Following North Korea Launch

TOKYO — Japan held its first civilian evacuation drill for a missile attack Friday, amid wariness over the military threat potentially posed by North Korea.

Ok, I'm actually concerned by this. Crisis, saber rattling, reneging on deals, just generally being international a-holes... That's North Korea's MO, been doing it for decades.

So on the surface it looks like a mistake for President Trump to play into NK's typical theater of threats, counter-threats etc. But then, everything we've seen of President Trump leads me to believe he and his team are more than astute enough to see this...and yet he's going down that path anyway. Makes me think maybe he's not playing around, he's serious. I hope the norks realize this, else it's going to get bloody.

“optionon the table”

Of Course it needs to be on the table. You don’t need to tell them if it is option “1” or option “13.” Keep them guessing, BUT DON’T ever take it off the table. As I onve was taught, “a should never be predictable.”
