One who recently described President Donald Trump as a 'psychopath'.
Takes the dialogue neatly in the direction of Cretan liars, and pots and kettles deciding that orange is the new black methinks.
Fortunately, we can show our nuts and psychos the door in 4 years. In NK, crazy is for life. And NK crazy doesn't have quite the system of checks and buffers on it that the USA has. So, it seems likely their kettle is a bit blacker than ours, in the long run.
Who should be scared is SK, given that Pyongyang has something like 14,000 conventional artillery tubes pointed at Seoul and environs and, if they feel too threatened, could wreak a level of destruction unprecedented in the history of the world. Greater Seoul has something like 26 million people, and it wouldn't required functional nukes to kill them. It's a small peninsula.
We need to tread very carefully here. Which means, ideally, locking Trump in a sealed, padded room for a while. A man can dream, can't he?
