Of course, these people are crazy. This is obviously a test of the new President. My concern is that Trump did NOT respond when asked about the launch. Trump has no idea what to do. This is frightening. Normally, there would have been some sort of prepared statement or at least Trump would say something...but nothing.
Trump's Administration is not prepared for even normal activity. They are showing that they are not prepared for this foreign policy test. Anyone else overly concerned???

IN the back of my mind, I'm imagining that this incident may be a real problem for Trump. It may reveal something that frightens the whole of the American people.

People could DIE. North Korea is a thread to THE WORLD. It's all connected and the last thing we want is for dominos to start tumbling. This situation isn't stable because we have Trump at the helm. He will use ANY MEANS NECESSARY to box us in and shit on our rights. Why would we callously look away from another world leader who is doing the same thing to his people?????????
