Tweet<\/a><\/div>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

I now am going to admit something.<\/p>\n

I giggled a bit when I read something about what Donald Trump tweeted about North Korean dictator Kim Jong Un.<\/p>\n

Kim supposedly said something about Trump being “old.” The president took offense. He said he’d never call Kim “short and fat.”<\/p>\n

Oops! Didn’t he just do exactly that? Sure he did.<\/p>\n

Actually I found the president’s tweet kinda\/sorta clever. But I don’t want to encourage<\/em> him to keep doing it.<\/p>\n

You see, the worldwide stakes are pretty damn high. Kim wants to build a nuclear weapon delivery system that reaches the United States of America. He’s said so publicly. Trump keeps yammering about “the military option” being on the table.<\/p>\n

It’s a dangerous world out there, Mr. President. Going to war in Korea isn’t an option — and I don’t give a damn what the president threatens to do if Kim keeps “threatening” the United States and South Korea.<\/p>\n

He’s dealing with someone no one outside of North Korea seems to know. No one can determine with any certainty how he will respond to these kinds of personal insults.<\/p>\n

I just wish the president would stop saying out loud what he’s entitled to think<\/em> in private.<\/p>\n\n
