Lindsey Graham: Trump won't allow the 'crazy man' in North Korea to strike the US
Wa Exam ^ | Nov 28, 2017 | Daniel Chaitin

Sen. Lindsey Graham asserted that President Trump won't allow the "crazy man in North Korea" to launch a nuclear weapon capable of reaching the U.S., after the pariah state, led by Kim Jong Un, conducted yet another missile test on Tuesday.

The insult, seemingly directed at Kim, came as the South Carolina Republican senator warned that North Korea is putting itself in greater jeopardy with every test it runs in defiance of international pressure to get it to halt its nuclear weapons and missile programs.

Pyongyang, he said during an interview on CNN, is "miscalculating" Trump, who Graham said favors diplomacy, like himself, despite Trump's previous threats of "fire and fury" against North Korean provocations.

"He is ready, if necessary, to destroy this regime, to protect America," Graham told CNN anchor Wolf Blitzer. "And I hope the regime understands."

That message, Graham added, should not be lost on China, which he painted as a critical partner in negotiations.

What is Graham angling for? Have he and Trump declared a truce or something?

Agreed. That’s the question to be answered. Why?

Pre-notice to US Navy: be prepared to sink ALL NorK submarines and surface ships in a very limited time frame, prior to anti-missile equipped ships off either coast. From that point, any ballistic missile fired over the water will be shot down ASAP after launch.

Pre-notice to USAF and US Army ground forces in SKor, be prepared to shoot down any missiles heading South. Any battery fires from the North will be met with immediate counter battery fires, as well as to any other batteries in the North within range. Otherwise US ground forces shall coordinate with ROK units to repel any ground incursions across the DMZ.

Problem is, there are too many “crazy men” in the U.S. Congress that Americans need protection from.

I think Linda fell for Trump after Trump dropped the MOAB on Syria.
