North Korea is the drunk, and the only thing they'll respect is fear. Obama tried the other way, but he only emboldened them.

North Korea is a drunk and Trump is unhinged. If he'd keep his butt off of twitter, this thing would not have escalated to this point. They're both calling one another's bluff and it isn't gonna end well for anybody. I'm definitely not afraid of North Korea, but they are backed by China and the Russians and any preemptive strike could easily lead to WW3. I highly doubt Kim Jong Un is gonna do anything, so a first strike by us would be a bad move. He's all bark and no bite. Who ever swings the first punch will lose the trust of the rest of the world. If we hit first, we look like a bully. If he hits first, (which is highly unlikely), China will be forced to take action against North Korea. Right now, Kim Jong Un cannot afford to lose support of China. They are basically the only thing keeping that country running.
