as for nukes and NK, that was always a pipe dream... If we could get it, great, but it aint in NK's interest. How about we end the Korean War and leave. Let China worry about Kim.

Aye ... especially now, with an unpredictable leader at the top of the USA, it would be pure madness for NK to give up its nukes

KJU has no intention of giving up his stockpile (about 60 warheads).
All Trump sees is dollars - like the cost of maintaining US presence in S. Korea. That's why all he can think of as inducement to NK is future economic gains.

If the US leaves South Korea, then South Korea will immediately start to construct its own nukes in order to counter balance the North. At that point, NK may decide to nuke SK before they can construct their own deterrent. In addition, if SK constructs its own nukes, then Japan will be under enormous pressure to do the same. However, if Japan constructed nukes, China might decide to nuke Japan before they can construct their nukes........

What is this, 1965?

You know what they say about those who don’t learn from the past. It’s pretty clear to me that Trump is no student of history.

The really stupid thing is it literally costs the US nothing to keep its forces in South Korea as South Korea pays the US to be there. Japan does the same. That is why Trump's ignorant claims about costs is just so stupid.

The man really should just be euthanized.

One more reason for black people to dustrust the police:

You remember the black person who was shot and killed by police persons with 8 shots (6 of them into the back), just because he used a cellphone in his grandmothers garden?

Now, almost 1 year after the incident, the Sacramento County District Attorney has announced that they won't prosecute the officers, because the use of deadly force was justified.


Well, so all you black persons in the USA know ... never use an iPhone near a police officer, s/he will be justified to kill you in this case

Gotta give Cook credit; he even changed his Twitter handle to commemorate the occasion.
