Current Events > Trump today: what I said is what I mean

(+) Yeah! (+)

http://www.cnn.com/2017/08/11/politics/trump-north-korea-overt-threat/index.html

On Friday, during a meeting on workforce development at his private golf club in Bedminster, New Jersey, Trump reiterated his sharp words against the communist country.

"I hope they are going to fully understand the gravity of what I said. And what I said is what I mean," Trump said, adding that his statements' significance was "pretty obvious" and his administration is looking "very carefully" at possible future actions against North Korea.
In response to Trump's comments, North Korean officials have indicated they plan to strike near Guam with missiles by the end of this month, a threat that has ratcheted up concerns within the Trump administration.

Trump also blamed his predecessors for discord in the Korean peninsula, saying that the current rhetoric is an extension of past failures and he has no choice but to respond to the rogue nation.

"We want to talk about a country that has misbehaved for many, many years, decades actually, through numerous administrations and they didn't want to take on the issue," he said. "I have no choice to take it on -- and I am taking it on -- and we will either be very, very successfully quickly or we are going to be very, very successful in a different way, quickly."

his supporters do say he says what he means and means what he says

Donald Trump has said military solutions over the North Korea crisis are "locked and loaded" the third time in a week he has issued a provocative warning against the isolated Asian nation over the nuclear threat they possess.

Mr Trump said: "Military solutions are now fully in place, locked and loaded, should North Korea act unwisely. Hopefully Kim Jong Un will find another path!"

Mr Trump also retweeted a message from the US military command in the Pacific saying American B-1B Lancer bombers on Guam “stand ready” if called upon for use in the crisis.

disturbing

He's said something along this line before. Nothing new. Does explain why they are aiming for Guam, though, so they can destroy the B1-B Lancer Bombers.

North Korea is shooting their mouth off to the wrong us president.

“If he utters one threat, in the form of an overt threat — which, by the way, he has been uttering for years, and his family has been uttering for years — or if he does anything with respect to Guam or anyplace else that's an American territory or an American ally, he will truly regret it, and he will regret it fast. Okay?” Trump said.

Good to see such confidence. I expect to see you at the front lines given that you're so confident.

so by labor day we might be in a war

We can't even take care of our own citizens. If we go to war with NK and liberate their citizens, then we have to take care of them. Can we just not? I want them to have decent lives but that's not our job. There's a reason Bush or Obama never did anything.

Can we just keep to ourselves for one year? Unless he wants to murder every last human north of the Korean border. Ugh.

Trump does mean what he says, and what he says is ALWAYS in the best interests and safety of America. If you want him to cater to a different country or cave into threats, maybe YOU'RE in the wrong country. Just saying - you support where you live, and if you don't, you're not welcome.

The real question is, why the hell wouldn't you? because someone on the news told you something completely unverified and that so-and-so is a "bad guy" and a "russian spy" without even a shred of proof?

I'm so tired of this misguided political crap - I spend most of my free time actually watching and comparing news networks, and from that perspective I can ASSURE you that most of these complaints about Trump are misplaced. You never get to play both sides of the fence, ever, in anything. It doesn't work that way.

Try taking a look at what he's DONE and what impact it has had on the country as a whole. If one is not willing to do that, their opinion means jack. Because THAT is the important thing - people make Trump out to be stupid, a maniac, and all this other crap - because he didn't do what THEY Would do? most of what he says is true and proven - despite what snopes might tell you - it's just like all the other propaganda agencies working for foreign governments covering up their rape and murder epidemics in migrant focused areas. It doesn't mean that stuff isn't happening and there's ample video evidence from facebook live and other streams to PROVE IT UNDENIABLY. ... and honestly, if you turn to CNN or snopes for your "facts" you are setting yourself up... and it's all on you.

Furthermore, people need to quit acting like Trumps comments to North Korea are so absurd and out of line - they don't just have nuclear weapons and ballistic missile technology, and they aren't ONLY showing proof of both to the rest of the world in their tests, intentionally, they are flat out saying they WILL use the nuclear weapons on the USA, Japan, and anyone else who does not recognize their authority. Any military action against them at this point, is absolutely called for and is probably the only thing that will save us from all-out nuclear holocaust. Kim Jong Un isn't saying that stuff for fun, he's saying it because he's already got his country enslaved and he's trying to the a conqueror like his daddy and etc. Pre-empting him is the only way to minimize casualties for a lot of people. If they wait until it's too late, it's TOO LATE.

I'll end my Trump rants here for today - but I'm serious. Take a look at what is being done, not what some jackass on TV SAYS or ASSUMES. That man is being paid to say what he says, by people with a political agenda. It is by no means trustworthy. The ones you should be listening to are the ones who aren't talking on cue.
