Trump: North korea will be met with fire and fury President Trump: North Korea will be met with 'fire and fury'

41 Mins Ago | 00:27

President Donald Trump on Tuesday warned North Korea about facing "fire and fury" if the isolated nation makes more threats to the United States.

"They will be met with fire and fury like the world has never seen. He has been very threatening ... and I said they will be met with fire, fury and frankly power the likes of which this world has never seen before," Trump told reporters during what he calls a "working vacation" at his New Jersey golf club.

His comments came hours after revelations Pyongyang has successfully created a miniaturized nuclear weapon designed to fit inside its missiles.

The development raises the stakes for Trump and other world leaders, who already faced difficult and limited options in dealing with North Korea's aggression.

1. So, yeah... golfing has been for shit because of the rain,

let's dare NK to nuke, say... Hawaii. BTW hats off to General Kelly, who is doing a bang up job.

[get the red out]

2. Great, nukes will start exploding

because this jackass pretend President is getting rained out of golf.

[Zoonart]

4. Oh, but the sun is out now.

If they can get in nine holes and put a Happy Meal in front of him perhaps we can stave off World War III for another day.

[dixiegrrrrl]

18. Nonsense. He musta watched Game of Thrones Sunday

and if feeling all "dragony".

[Mr.Bill]

3. That statement is not official

until he tweets it.

[flibbitygiblets]

5. We are actually waiting for word from...Kellyanne Conway.

I guess we should be glad it's not Jared or Ivanka...

Also word is, Loretta Lynch once met with Bill Clinton on a plane, so obviously that's taking up much of POTUS' gray matter, which for once is kind of a relief.

[Mr.Bill]

7. Didn't Bill Clinton know

it was illegal to talk to Loretta Lynch?

[flibbitygiblets]

11. I know, so much worse that Jr. having a secret meeting with Russians

nothing shady or suspicious about that at all.

Speaking of which, you know how Trump is always projecting? It's like he KNOWS he's not the legit prez, so he keeps attacking Hillary to undermine the fact that he knows she really won.

[C_U_L8R]

6. Someone is watching too much Game of Thrones

[Hortensis]

9. Suspect they both are.

[wcollar]

8. The Twit

is going to Tweet the North Koreans unmercifully.

That will show them.

[Freethinker65]

10. Reminds me of Saddam's "Mother of all battles". Ugh.

[Doug the Dem]

12. NK has advanced beyond Gilligan's Island, but Still...

[Strelnikov_]

17. Very good . . .

Thanks for posting.

13. Gen. Clark: News of NKorea's Nukes Complicates Deterrence Option.

'Reports that North Korea has developed miniaturized nuclear weapons that can be fitted onto an intercontinental ballistic missile means the United States will have to accept the fact that it will need to it will have to move into a period of "mutual deterrance," retired NATO Commander Gen. Wesley Clark said Tuesday.

"We're going to have to accept the fact that if their capability stands, that in the event of war on the Korean peninsula, the United States homeland is not safe, and therefore this makes deterrence more complicated," Clark said during a panel discussion on MSNBC's "Craig Melvin" show.'>>>

14. I hope the Repugnants in Congress have the common sense not to give him any authortization

to initiate or even retaliate against N Korea without either their permission or N Korea launching and attacking us or an ally with a ballistic nuclear warhead.

[ripcord]

19. Since we never negotiated a peace treaty with NK

Does he need any authorization? The only agreement was an armistice that stated both sides should reconvene in 3 months to discuss peace but that never happened.

[cstanleytech]

24. Wasn't it declared a police action? Unless they changed it to a formal declaration of war then

Donald would be violating the law.

[jpak]

15. Paper Tiger

yup

[syringis]

16. Is it me or his posture is bizarre?

Almost as if he rocks. And why his arms are crossed?

Why he threatens overlooked among his aides ? Why not a bit of "decorum"?

[Bradical79]

21. Maybe he's frightened -nt

[Danmel]

20. His body language is bizarre

He looks like he's in a straight jacket.

[Alice11111]

26. Anderson Cooper called it, "protective mode."

[TomSlick]

22. I'd be the last to advocate a military coup, but

I hope that some adult has put a block on the nuclear weapons codes. I think Kim is a rational actor - a kleptocrat who only wants to keep his deal going. I'm less sure about Trump.

[truthisfreedom]

23. Isn't our lil Kim cute?

He's so much like his Korean brother!

[TomCADem]

25. If Trump Does Not Believe and Disparages His Intelligence Agencies...

...why should we believe Trump when he says he is relying on his intelligence agencies that he repeatedly disaparages?

[Phoenix61]

30. Yeah, funny how that works isn't it? nt

[Alice11111]

27. Trump invited NK to take him up on it &NK did so w a threat

to bomb Guam. What an idiot he is. The Repubs need to take him out before he starts WWIII. This may be it. Meanwhile, Congress continues with its month long vacation.

[Not Ruth]

28. I would pull our troops out of South Korea immediately and see what happens

[orleans]

29. what a good idea

taunts from the crazy mind to another crazy mind.

what could go wrong?
