Go ahead, nuke the fleet. It’s gonna be hilarious to see what our Nobel Peace Prize winner does in response.

I appreciate that you were being funny, but keep in mind that we have thousands of sons and daughters in that fleet. I would prefer that no one do any nuking this weekend.

It sounds to me like the regime in NK is falling apart. But I’m more worried about how our commander in chief will react.

It would not be a first for a dictator with monumental problems to start a war in an effort to unite the population behind the government.

I guess I’m just crazy, but in my book any nation which threatens to nuke us should receive a nuke within 24 hours. Don’t tread on me.
