I normally don’t like to directly point out the sheer stupidity of certain posters here, but Screwy’s comment actually outdoes all the flat earth and 9/11 airplane nonsense. So what would you have Trump do, Screwy? Use the playbook that every other president has used in the past and quickly apologize while giving the Norks concessions with both hands? Sure— because that worked so well in the past, right?Screw_Michigan wrote:
Way to fuck that up!
USA: Denuclearize NOW! We won't be making any concessions.
DPRK: No

The only way this administration could be any dumber is if Left Shitter, Joe Blow in PB, 88braincells, and Killitard were calling the shots.
Nope. But I do want the problem dealt with, once and for all.Screw_Michigan wrote:Just admit it dipshit, you want war on the Korean Peninsula.
On the contrary— it appears Kim is the one who is fickle and isn’t serious about improving conditions in both his country and in terms of international relations. Trump was magnanimous and thanked him for releasing the hostages. Trump went the extra mile and spoke of how he hoped Kim would rejoin him at the negotiating table.Screw_Michigan wrote:King Dipshit rashly accepted a summit with Kim without considering the risks, then hypes expectations for an historic breakthrough, & then withdraws like a jilted lover when reality settles in. Kim emerges stronger. Trump emerges weaker. The US is more alone. And war is more likely.

U.S. President Donald Trump on Thursday issued a posthumous pardon to boxer Jack Johnson, the first African-American heavyweight champion, who was jailed a century ago due to his relationship with a white woman.
“I believe Jack Johnson is a worthy person to receive a pardon, to correct a wrong in our history,” Trump said.
In a case that came to symbolize racial injustice, Johnson was arrested in 1912 with Lucille Cameron, who later became his wife, for violating the Mann Act. The law was passed two years earlier and made it a crime to take a woman across state lines for immoral purposes.
Johnson died in 1946.
In signing the pardon, the president cited “tremendous racial tension” during the time Johnson was champion. “He really represented something that was both very beautiful and very terrible at the same time,” Trump said.
Actor Sylvester Stallone, famous as the star of the “Rocky” boxing-movie franchise, and former world heavyweight boxing champion Lennox Lewis flanked Trump for the pardon in the Oval Office. In April, Trump tweeted that he was considering the pardon after talking to Stallone.
Earlier on Thursday, Stallone posted a photo of himself at the White House on Instagram with the caption “Waiting for the moment to go into the oval office for the pardon...”
In the Oval Office, Trump said of Stallone: “I love his movies.”
“This has been a long time coming,” Stallone said, adding that Johnson served as the inspiration for the character of Apollo Creed in the Rocky movies.
And how has that worked out for the past 17 years?Rooster wrote:Pax Americana has always been predicated on reducing our footprint militarily once a subjugated country behaves within internationally recognized norms— and subjugation only happens after tremendous provocation has occurred.

Kim Jong-il was 53 years old when he took over NK.Kim (and his predecessors) didn’t have nukes until 2006. How did they stay in control before that? And how does Kim having nukes keep his people from overthrowing him? Does he keep the nukes in his pocket?
Kim Jong Il is dead. Jong Un is the symbolic secretary of the Korean Workers Party and State, his power is equivalent to Elizabeth II. The position of Supreme Leader was abolished after Kim Il Sung's death. The Supreme Assembly (mostly old guard) make all decisions on policy, foreign and domestic. The Party controls the country and the daily decision making process, presenting it as a test of wills between two individuals just shows how far the western public is detached from the reality of the situation. And ill-equipped to deal with it.Rooster wrote: That you view Kim Jung Il as the good guy and Trump as the fool in this situation speaks volumes about the kind of regime you’d support and just how vile your politics are.
You are missing his mission. To convince Jong Un to launch his missiles in a straight path towards the US. Any Northern trajectory launch will be futile as they would go over the edge or hit a wall.Papa Willie wrote:Why don't YOU straighten out Kim, 'Tardt? You're practically living in his butthole.

1. I said the U.S. should publicly ignore Kim Jong-un. Don't enhance his status with public dialogue. The U.S. goal should be to have him removed from within. It would seem more likely for him to be removed from within if those within his country see him as a marginal character on the world stage. Trump has done the opposite. He has given the little fat boy relevance.88 wrote:Yes, the U.S. can continue to ignore it. That is essentially what Obama, Bush, Clinton, Bush, Reagan, Carter, Ford, Nixon, Johnson, Kennedy and Eisenhower did. Care to comment on how effective that policy has been? If it worked so well the past 60+ years, why are we even talking about NK?
