Liberal my butt. I'm not to fond of the idiot in the oval office being too terribly capable of handling ANY crisis of this magnitude. Christ there's 10MM people in Seoul alone.

I'm going to have to go with no.

How about this, let's pull our troops out of Asia (and everywhere else) and let those people deal with their own problems. Why make ourselves a target by sticking our nose where it doesn't belong.

While I would support a "decapitation strike", or any similar measure to deal with any rogue state playing with nuclear, biological or similar weapons, we surely ought to have conventional weapons suited to the task. The last thing I want is for the United States to be the instigator of the first and second use of nuclear weapons.

I can see only one scenario in which a present-day democratic nation-state might turn to the use of nuclear weaponry as a last resort; that would be an invasion of Israel via the Golan Heights by ISIS and their ilk. No telling what might have already been hidden in those mountain passes, but the invaders would have it coming.

Trump isn't going to instigate any of the Snowflakes' nightmares; their increasingly-paranoid behavior just serves as proof of how out of touch they are, and while I didn't vote for him, and hold a low opinion of his appeals to the economic ignorance of his following, I don't see him as doing anything rash -- only symbolic gestures that promote more turd-throwing from the Lefties' monkey house.
