If he puckered a little more, it could pass for an Ed Sullivan impression. Substitute, "We're gonna have a really big shew!" with, "There's gonna be fire, fury and, frankly, power --like this world has never seen!" The understated Trump version of a really big show.

Sullivan looked casual/relaxed. Trump looks like he's holding on or in for dear life. Maybe if he clenched hard enough, he was able to suppress his jitters from shaking the table and keep a lid on the hurl mechanism.

Kellyanne seems to communicate so much more effectively when she keeps her mouth shut. That picture was worth a thousand words. Not Kellyanne words. True ones.

It's good that you can recognize the difference between a president and a pretender.

Trump didn't start this North Korea nuclear disaster for the world. He may well finish it, however.
Worst case:
North Korea nukes South Korea.
USA flattens North Korea with nukes.
China steps in and launches nukes against us.

Crossed arms can also be an attempt to control anger, and this interpretation would also make sense given the context.

If anyone thinks this has anything to do with distracting from the liberals collusion delusions, you are not very bright.

The little twerp with the funny haircut in NK isn't very bright either. The first missle he fires at Guam or anywhere else will be his last. NK will go up in a cloud of smoke before he can send the second one, and rightfully so. He can't possibly think he can take on the United States and still have a county left when it's all said and done.

I'm guessing his polls numbers are going to rise because of North Korea. His base is having orgasms with all the flag waving and threats to nuke the commies.

I seriously doubt he's dumb enough to fire anything at Guam or anybody else if and when he's capable of doing so. It's a bunch of grandstanding and chest thumping. That being said I don't blame him one bit for not trusting the U.S. and sticking to his guns, so to speak. IMO the US has no business in that region of the world anyway. Japan, China and S. Korea can be big boys and deal with North Korea.

North Korea is now in the planning stage...

North Korea will develop a plan by mid-August to launch four intermediate range missiles at the U.S. territory of Guam before presenting it to leader Kim Jong-un who will make a decision on whether to proceed, the North’s state media said on Thursday.

“Sound dialogue is not possible with such a guy bereft of reason and only absolute force can work on him,” it said of Trump, adding that it will keep closely watching the speech and behaviour of the United States.
