We get 90% of the 90%.

And speaking of US troops in Korea; where are the Democrats clamoring about Truman's exit strategy there? Over 50 years have passed since the armistace and our troops are still there.

It may be. If it not, it a good imitation.

And for the record: North Korea has missles that can hit the west coast of America.
