Right before the Olympics in South Korea would seem to be a Trumpian kind of time for military action. Think of the viewership, think of the ratings. Everybody would be talking about Trump.
So , Mr Dickhead Tillerson , like Trumpski , wants a war .
Tillorsen is a joke, a laughing stock, a Putin brown noser. A nobody with delusions of grandeur. Cuck Kushner is the real Secretary of State.
Wouldn’t trust these jackass sociopaths to manage a bogus Burger King in Assback, Nowhere. But our corrupt, dysfunctional system puts them in power, spouting off with their arrogant idiocy, the prospect of millions killed, global economy decimated, ecological apocalypse. Perfect.
Things were going so well…
But don’t worry–I’m sure we’ll get lots of support from the rest of the world. Every nation on the African continent, for example, will be all in.
As usual the solution is the opposite of what Tillerson’s Effen Moron does. Worldwide nuclear disarmament negotiations would give North Korea the ability to save face and return to conventional weapons which they have in spades. But no. The U.S. is instead expanding a nuclear arsenal that already has only the rather limited ability to extinguish Homo sapiens.
Right, so we give North Korea “a bloody nose” to find out if their nuclear weapons are fully functional. I am sure South Korea and Japan are looking forward to that.
Probably the best military action you’ve ever seen any president lead our country into.
So, in other words, now we know that Rex has an even smaller dick than Trump.
Well dang. If we go to war will Trump and Tillerson fund it? Will Baron get drafted? Will Ivanka roll bandages? Inquiring (survivors) want to know!
Run for office- the 2018 elections are 10 months away! And if Trump and Louie Gohmert and Steve King can get elected what’s to stop a qualified candidate?
Become a Precinct Committee Officer, sometimes it’s a Ward officer. You’ll meet with neighborhood Dems and get out the vote. Find good citizens willing to run for office.
Register people to vote. If you need to help people overcome the GOP-led Voter run-around help them do that.
Run for School Board. Make sure Civics is being properly taught. Think a majority of America knows how government works? Just 26% of eligible voters in America voted for Trump and half of eligible voters stayed home last November. Today’s 12-year olds will be voting for President in 8 years.
Run for Mayor, City Council, County Commissioner, Borough Assembly.
Get appointed to your Planning Commission. Know everything going on in your community.
Run for State Legislature or Congress. The next census is in 2020, just over 2 years from now, when we redraw Congressional Districts.
And get rid of GERRYMANDERING! Safe GOP seats gave us such intellectual giants as Louie Gohmert and Steve King. In most cases it’s the state Legislature that draws Congressional boundaries. Make it FAIR, OPEN and HONEST! We can do this!
Overturn Citizens United. Money is NOT speech and Corporations are NOT people- at least not until Texas executes one, and overturn any voter ID laws that are clearly an attempt to disenfranchise the poor and people of color.

Back in 1912-13, people were talking about how england needed to get “a bloody nose” to wake it out of its pacifist slumber. Just a nice contained little war.
Terrifying.
THIS is what happens when you put an empty-headed, ignorant slumlord in charge of US security! Most of the Trumpanzees still see this as GOOD news, I imagine!
I wonder what will happen when Japan, China and South Korea have had their fill of Trump? Accidents happen every day.
Hey Rex…you and neo-Nazi Trump are out in left field.
Norht and South Korea are moving closer together and they have a far better chance of finding pece IF the US gets out of the way.
S. Korea doesn’t need the US…they can stand on their own with the North.
Like the Paris Accord, the peace negotiations between North and South Korea will make a lot more progress if Trump throws another hissy fit and pulls the US out.
Thanks to Trump’s extremism, the world is learning that they are better off if the US is isolated and not involved. The US is the most corrupt nation in the world after Russia…the US Corporate monopolies like Exxon-Mobil and Boeing are seen around the world as economic terrorists!
Is it just me or has anyone else noticed that while NK has always been a pain in the ass it was never an imminent nuclear threat until Trump came along and provoked them? Now we have the Sec. of State threatening a military response to NK yet no other Sec of State felt it necessary to say shit like that. Hopefully Kim’s a bit more sane than Trump. Or we’re all screwed.
…some in the Trump administration advocate military action to give the North a “bloody nose.”
Schoolyard bullies who have no idea what they’re actually up against.
American military action, golden, the BEST.
The North Koreans have been on this trajectory since the early Bush years, if not before. Were Hillary Clinton in the White House, their warheads would still be getting smaller and their rockets would still be getting more capable. These are engineering developments, not political ones.
Well Trump military action that is. The rest was kind of half assed.
“We have to recognize that the threat is growing and that if North Korea does not choose the pathway of engagement, discussion, negotiation then they themselves will trigger an option,” he said.
This is sounding horribly, depressingly, disgustingly, disturbingly, like Bush 1 in 1991 and Bush 2 in 2002.
We’ll be lucky if we make it out of 2018 without war.
