The Developing North Korea Crisis - Trump Era


Lets Get Real:

It would not be a great surprise if North Korea tested another nuclear bomb or tried another ICBM test, sending a missile over US Guam.   The North Koreans have been playing Trump since he came in to the Oval Office.  They have gotten good PR for the Summit's between Trump and the North Korean Leader.   Of late Kim Jong Un has been to Russia, it can be postulated that he is playing the US vs. Russia and hoping to get better concessions out of the Trump Oval.  President Trump can not allow himself to be played again, he faces a tough election fight in 2020, he does not want Biden to state that he is WEAK on national security when Biden himself is a 100% WEAK on national security.  While VP to President Obama, he opposed the troops surge to Afghanistan, and according to Robert Gates he undercut the policy at every change he got.  Also he was opposed to going after OBL in Pakistan.  BIDEN IS WEAK ON NATIONAL SECURITY, the Trump Oval should play on that, it is an easy win if Trump can keep to the economy and national security as his talking points.
