Woe boy.... well, let me take a crack at this from, as your thread tittle indicated, my own limited pov...
“I know or think I know that Trump is bluffing and acting very bully like with threats of unleashing his power as commander and chief a military with super weapons. But why bluff with such boyish stupidity? “
Well you admitted that you dont really know the current prez intentions, be they bluff or not. But why describe it as “bully like”... ? The united states didnt start this saber rattling affair. North korea has been going at this for more than 20 years. They never really stopped after the korean war. Hardely trump being a bully speaking out on americas defense.
“I think mr Trumps barginings skills are at an all time low and so the threats of violence and retaliation for misbehaving according to the whims of a narcissist.”
on that we somewhat agree. There were more effective ways to address and phrase his feelings and i wouldnt kick at every barking dog. However north korea has taken some really significant steps on a very threatening nuke program. Something needed to be said and, pardon the reference, lines drawn.
“My confidence in him is at an all time low, talk about cave man club you over the head approach to problems this guy takes the cake. “
Again, nuke programs and icbm’s to carry them are a very serious issue to international community. If this were some internal conflict id feel differently but this is quiet literally world sercurity.
“Take away the button to blow up the world from this guy,,, quick the world is in danger from an egomaniac in a panic mode with mental incompetence for a job way above his intellectual level.”
sigh... so your ok with kim having nukes, his finger on the button, but trump is where you draw the line..? You have seen an iq test that in some way quantified his intellectual level? Hyperbole is all well and good but its hard to take it seriously in this matter when you offered nothing but “feelings” of fear. Its a tough situation and i wish the previous 3 administrations had resolved it instead of making it worse but this is where we are and what we have to deal with. Until trump does something irrational on this i dont see the point in running around frantically.
