DONALD Trump has held a meeting on the growing North Korea crisis in the White House's famous "situation room" along with the US Generals, reports say.

Trump is reported to have held a briefing on North Korea at the White House along with US National Security Council.

The situation room often hosts "war councils" during times of conflict, and was famously where Barack Obama monitored the mission to kill Osama bin Laden.

Tensions between the US and North Korea have been worsening as Kim refuses to give up his quest for nuclear capable ICBMs.

Exactly. That’s why all the killing that has happened since 1946 has been under “Use of Force” or “Peacekeeping” resolutions. Plus good, isn’t it?

No, despite the eunuchs in congress, the constitution puts it in their hands. Since 1962 the congress has let the president have the say without putting themselves on the line as required. Resolutions and war powers acts merely hand the ball off.

In a rational America. No girls on the battlefield or in the Draft. Rationality is unlikely to be a feature of America again so long as the Republic continues. I suspect continuation ceased somewhere in the last two decades. Now we are all talking about alternate histories.

Well, It is my opinion that Trump would never permit women to be drafted because he is rational.

No matter what Our President decides, at least you can trust that he is working in Amercia’s interests. That’s more than can be said for Obama, bush or Clinton

Now that is absolutely true. I listened to him speak yesterday...and he did mention how he didn't have to do this; he had quite the comfortable life. That is what I have said/posted for quite some time. He put himself on the media's bulls-eye just because he loves his country.

Maybe we’ve come to the end of the calm before the storm.

That is possible, but unlike many, he won't telegraph any military action before it happens. I love it; keep everyone guessing!
