Kim's an evil murderous bastard who needs to die howling, but he is a pretty good judge of character, gotta give him that much.
I really don't mind if the two crazy pieces-o'-crap sandbox-name-call each other all day and into the night. Wouldn't really mind if they just killed each other. The only thing that bugs me is all the rest of us are caught between what are quite possibly the two absolute worst people on earth to be dealing with such a situation. We need a (1)sane (2)secure (3)adult involved in this thing... and both countries are 0 for 3. They're both narcissistic babies who have to be tended like little violets, pampered and showered with constant praise or they get cranky. The only real difference is that they've got a dictator, and we don't have a leader at all. The office of president is, for all practical purposes, vacant.
And we're all collateral in their squabble.
I'm pretty sure we've got the capability to shoot down any North Korean missles before they get here so I'm not overly worried about that part, but if we wipe a country off the map with nukes, even in retaliation, it's going to create such a mess that it'll destabilize damn near everything, and it'll destroy our international standing, which has been our main asset. But, Trump's wrecking that, anyway. I have relatives in Europe and from what I hear from them we're starting to be regarded as pretty much of an idiot country now. And, yeah, "dotard" is exactly the right word.
