As if this hasn’t been discussed by Trump and Xi for months.

The response of the Chinese Central Bank speaks volumes for me. I think the Chinese have groked Trump correctly: He is willing to bomb North Korea and the world will get ZERO WARNING if he decides to do so.

Knowing that, the Chinese have decided to use the leverage they have with the North Koreans in the hopes that they can avoid the Big Trump Move. And they know they can't sit around and stall. Waiting to move is not an option for them any longer.

Trump is not Obama 2.0 and the Chinese know it. And he has a nice fleet of B2s. For all I know he might have a few B3s

My guess is that Rocket Man will be on the receiving end of some weapons that look like something out of science fiction, courtesy of the USAF, Air Force Space Command and the Navy.

The Chinese won’t know when the Norks will get hit but they probably are aware it will be all over very quickly. It may well be over before the Norks even realize that they are being attacked.

If Kim wasn’t delusional he’d be scurrying for any sort of deal that leaves him alive.
