Honestly though, it sounds like NK is trying to goad the US into starting the war, so that they can point to the USA as the villain who hit first.
They know that they're done if they hit first, especially since maybe not even China would go to bat for them if they proved themselves to be nothing but a liability by doing something that stupid.
My take on it is that Trump simply needs to have the mental fortitude to not take the bait.

President Trump addressed the ongoing crisis between the U.S. and North Korea at a briefing on opioids in New Jersey on Tuesday, issuing a stern warning to the regime for its continued provocations.
"North Korea best not make any more threats to the United States," warned Mr. Trump from his golf club in Bedminster.
"They will be met with fire and fury like the world has never seen," he told reporters. "He has been very threatening -- beyond a normal statement," Mr. Trump said of North Korean leader Kim Jong-un. "As I said, they will be met with fire, fury and frankly power the likes of which this world has never seen before."
It started to a long time ago. I fear it's too late to put out this fire. The only question that remains is, how much fuel are we going to throw on it.
When it becomes feasible. Only idiots (soon to be dead ones) would risk it. You would have us wait till he lobs a nuke at LA, I guess. If he has the capability and has stated that is his intent, it is beyond time to act. We have all this military for a reason, and this may be the moment.

So we of course should have gone to war with the USSR when Khrushchev said "We will bury you", right?
Funny how that worked out, isn't it?
