Not to worry.

President Doofus P. Magoo has many tools in his toolbox.

Remind me how may missiles Little Rocket Man launched when we had a real President?

We strongly demand that the Norks stop testing or we will strongly demand that they stop again.

Oh boy, another strong rebuke is on the way by this administration. I bet they are drafting it as we watch the world burn....

Trump stopped these shenanigans, and after Biden’s Afghanistan fiasco, it’s all ahead full with our enemies. Watch Iran, China, North Korea and Russia churn up confrontation with the US and our allies (who no longer trust us).

This is China creating a diversion....Xi loves using N.Korea to rile up the nations. Kim does nothing without China’s ok.
