Trump just called him "wonderful." That's as bad as him saying he has "complete confidence."

(12,448 posts)Exactly. He is actively AGAINST even attempts at diplomacy. He WANTS war. He won't put himself or his family in harm's way, not intentionally. But, what could possibly go wrong in a nuclear war?
He's the most dangerous of beasts: a cowardly weakling trying to prove how tough he is.

(55,004 posts)he is a twelve year old mean girl and too many people are afraid of him or are kissing his ass for their own greed, the dumb supporters out in the wilderness actually think they are going to get invited to the party.

(2,050 posts)It's patently obvious you've never even taken out the garbage in your life, you have the physical condition of a bloated whale and you couldn't survive a fistfight with a ten year old girl.
You're about as brave as my little pony and if you didn't have the armed forces at your short stunted little fingertips you'd be getting mugged every thirty seconds by schoolchildren.
You're about as scary as dirt, no one is afraid of you, not even 90 year old grandmothers with arthritis.
So what's this "we" shit you incomprehensible mouth breather?.

(3,335 posts)to "do what had to be done" when they had a chance. Quite the contrary. Trump evaded doing what needed to be done when his country called upon him, claiming college deferments four times and heel spurs once before finally drawing a high enough number the last time to run out the clock, and his son's would rather hunt down defenseless wildlife than Afghans or members of Al Kaeda.
Now he wants to wrap himself in the Flag as if he's some patriot. If he were a patriot he would have answered the call to serve when his country called him up for duty in Vietnam, with those other Veterans he's always standing next to in order to give him cover.
So NO Trump, "we will not do what has to be done!" YOU will let other people's children do what has to be done because you don't know what honor and integrity is. And today you're telling Sec Tillerson to stop talking with North Korea. Negotiation is a valid tool used to avoid that which should be avoided at all costs, when possible. In this case Nuclear War with North Korea. If you're not prepared to physically lead the attack on North Korea, or offer up your sons in that conflict, than I suggest you STFU and let Tillerson talk as long as he needs to keep talking to quash the bullshit YOU started with your juvenile namecalling.
