It says a lot about Donald Trump that, when it comes down to the nuclear posturing between the U.S. and North Korea, it seems less likely that dictator Kim Jong-Un will launch missiles than our own president.
Thank God for Kim Jong-un

From the perspective of American Exceptionalism reaction to American aggression is a provocation justifying war.
Americans hate Russia because of Russia’s reaction to a violent American directed overthrow of an elected government on its borders.
It’s as if any reaction to the will of God is worthy of condemnation because the will of God is not to be questioned.
So America plays God with the world.
Compare to making a citizen’s arrest on a police officer.
WE’RE NUMBER ONE!!
We have THE MOST Batshit Crazy Leader in the World! Just terrific, let me tell you.
The American presidency is an entry level position.
See Bush, Obama, and Trump.
The good news is that anyone can be president.
The bad news is that anyone can be president.
“WE’RE NUMBER ONE!!”
Really? I keep having the impression we’re number two….
