Genuine question - how would you take him out? Even if the U.S. lobbed dozens of nuclear weapons at North Korea, I doubt he would be killed. I'm sure he's made plans for that possible eventuality and he would have enough warning to head to one of his bunkers deep underground. As long as he remained alive or was not proven dead he would have much of his brainwashed populace fighting for him. So it would come down to troops on the ground and conventional warfare.

As far as assassination is concerned, I'm sure it has been tried and has been as unsuccessful as it was with Castro.

It's been said here many times in this very thread, but we also know that the left has reading and comprehension problems....

I have a healthcare.gov plan that I pay 100% of the premium on (no subsidy), and my deductible is over double and my premium almost triple that of the individual plan Obama said I could keep.
Not a deflection at all. It was a question. Most people get insurance through their employer & cost has been increases for decades. If we're serious about lowering the cost of healthcare we need to think about putting cost controls on prescription medicine and health services...

Where's the far better insurance Trump promised we all would have immediately after he took office?

He's absolutely right to call for a diplomatic solution.

Rednecks get fired up about Ellison mostly because he's a black man that doesn't put up with their bull crap...

This isn't your granddaddy's Mississippi..

As we all know ... Trump lies ... a lot. Let just just hope he is lining about nukes.
