...if they don't tell him flatly to back the F off... this is a supremely bad idea to provoke a fellow megalomaniac with nukes, much less attack them with the partial forces he's using to try and intimidate them.

...he doesn't get that no one wants a military confrontation w/NK. Just not worth the potential blowback which even an idiot can see is fraught with disaster because of NK's isolation and paranoia.

Just like there's almost no coverage of this creep to war, most folks won't likely won't see this going over the top until it's too late. This is as good a sign as any that Trump's diving deeper than he should (deliberately) into uncharted, dangerous waters.
