Resistance Hero Maxine Waters has quite the strategy for dealing with escalating tensions with North Korea: figure out if the U.S. can give them the things that theyre asking for.
Thats right, the California Democrat sees a resolution to the crisis through diplomacy, telling a TMZ reporter that Secretary of State Rex Tillerson needs to fill the State department with those who can engage Pyongyang.
"We're on the verge of nuclear war, what are your thoughts on this?" the reporter asked.
"I want us to be very careful, very alert to what is happening and to avoid war," Waters said. "I think we can do this with some diplomacy, but we have got to have Tillerson, who is our secretary of state, get those positions filled for deputy [and] for assistant, so that we can engage with North Korea."
While she acknowledged North Korea has been threatening the United States, she believes we should still pursue diplomacy.
"I think there's some things that they want from us, and we have to find out whether or not we can work with them on the things that they're asking for," Waters said.
"This is something that we should be very concerned about, but this is not the time to go bluffing and threatening. This is a time for a diplomacy," she added, referencing President Trumps fire and fury comments this week.
"North Korea best not make any more threats to the United States," Trump said. "They will be met with fire and fury like the world has never seen."
"[Kim Jong-un] has been very threatening beyond a normal statement, and as I said, they will be met with fire, fury, and, frankly, power, the likes of which this world has never seen before," the president continued.
Waters Lectures Tillerson About Importance of 'Diplomacy' in Dealing With North Korea
We should not exhaust diplomatic efforts, but in the meantime, let’s take up Ms Waters on her suggestion. We’ll sell of her things, and use the proceeds to pay for things for the NKs. USA, USA!
What, Maxine...our very lives?
Idiot!
Loral arms technology exports lead to $20 million government fine
.......and China passed this technology to N K.
The woman has a room temperature IQ!!
In other words, pay them more protection money in exchange for some bogus concession that they will violate as soon as they leave the table, and call it peace.
Why can’t Congress give Trump things he wants? Does one have to be a pot-bellied boy king to get stuff from Maxine Waters and friends?
Like what, madmax? California?
She turns 79 today.
Yeah, American voters' number one concern when heading into the voting booth is North Korea and our foreign policy towards it. Get real. Remember "Its the economy, stupid"?
