    Default President Trump: North Korean Missile Tests Do Not Pose Threat To U.S.

    UPDATED 10:40 AM PT — Sunday, July 28, 2019

    President Trump downplays last week’s missile tests by North Korea.
    Last week, during a press conference the President said the incident would not interfere with U.S. North Korea negotiations.

    He said the missiles were ‘short-range,’ commonly used by many countries, and therefore did not pose a threat to the U.S.
    “They are short range missiles and my relationship is very good with Chairman Kim and we’ll see what happens. But they are short range missiles, and many people have those missiles” President Trump said.
    In fact, the President went on to tout his healthy working relationship with Chairman Kim Jong Un, saying the relationship remains in good condition and the tests were not carried out in bad faith against the U.S.
    “He didn’t say a warning to the United States. I can tell you that. he didn’t say a warning to the United States” President Trump said.
    North Korea successfully test fired two short-range missiles last week in an apparent warning to South Korean military warmongers.

    I think the decision has been made by the administration that NO. Kor. can maybe be contained, but not stopped from nukes, which they already have. The issue left would be Japan, So. Korea and other Pacific allies.

    I think Iran has learned from this.

    Short range stuff. Might pose a threat to western Pacific countries. I suspect it's a lot of sabre rattling for now (the boy wants attention methinks).
    I predict future happiness for Americans if they can prevent the government from wasting the labors of the people under the pretense of taking care of them.

    No doubt. Luckily not us or our allies at threat.

    I suppose Japan and South Korea would be primary targets for those sorts of weapons.

    Hasn't met with Trump lately and no sanctions lifted entirely as he desired, so yup, back to rattling looking for that attention again. But I would demand promises, if possible, if going to ever meet again.

    Wasn't it last month they met at the DMZ? Pompeo was going to meet with him in July, but the missile test-2nd I think, made Pompeo cancel that.
