Tim Russert interviewing @realDonaldTrump in 1999 about launching a pre-emptive strike against North Korea. Could be key to his thinking.
I would build a copy of a NORK missile, put it in a water tight container mounted to the deck of a sub, get as close to the North Korean coast as possible and launch it towards the west.
The world would assume it came from them while Kimmy pees his britches.
Paraphrasing Trump’s last comment:
Tim, do you want to wait 5 years when they will have nukes pointed at every one of our cities, or do you want to do something now?
Tim Russert, whatever became of that libtard?
LOL
Reincarnated in his son, Luke, seen w/ F Chuck on MTP.
“I’m deeply saddened “...
ummmm..... he died of a heart attack...... 2008
Yep, not long after he jumped on the Obama bandwagon, too.
Wow!
New York Post picked up the story. Must be FR readers.

I could tell. :)
Everyone is getting whipped up by the media and Trump’s tweets, calm down. This hysteria is nonsense and downright dangerous.
Too many headline readers are completely ignorant of the NK capabilities. NK must be having a big laugh at all our headlines.
The most powerful NK missile, only in theory, could reach about Kansas City, with no payload bigger than a jar of kimchee.
They would have to have another missile stage added on to provide more fuel in boost.
Their best missiles so far are all “truck” launched. They don’t have a truck big enough for a bigger missile. If they did, a bigger heavier missile would get damaged joyriding around NK.
They would have to go to a silo launch with onsite liquid fueling. That’s what every other nuclear power does that wants nukes delivered.
NK has no silos, if they did we would know. Also, all of their orbital apogee missiles have burned up on re-entry, they don’t have adequate heat shields, yet.
Let’s all calm down.
