Do the North Koreans need to be slapped down more than the Australian Navy needs training? Has Trump discovered the joy of blowing stuff up?
North Korea has needed to be slapped down for decades. They are now dangerously close to being able to hit the contiguous US with nuclear weapons. If we keep letting this kind of stuff go, eventually everyone will have ICBMs, and that would make use of them inevitable. If we can coordinate a slapdown with China and other affected states, we should do it.
