Donald Trump, a man who has little understanding of foreign policy or North Korea is going to "handle" North Korea. If Trump had any curiosity he'd ask the most simple of questions. What does North Korea want? As ridiculous as this sounds North Korea wants complete and full diplomatic relations and a peace treaty with the United States. Granted they also want the U.S. to end its military and political alliance with South Korea which every administration has adamantly refused to do.
Does Kim-Jong un really want a war on the Korean peninsula? Of course not. Kim-Jong un is concerned with his and regimes survival. Kim-Jong un after viewing what happened to Saddam Hussein after giving up his pursuit of nuclear weapons following sanctions placed upon Iraq and various government officials decided that giving up North Korea's nuclear weapons programs would lead to regime change.
Is Kim-Jong un a dangerous leader? Yes. His government has committed crimes against humanity, constructed an extensive system of gulags, sells drugs and other stolen merchandise to help finance the country's nuclear ambitions.
Donald Trump is more dangerous due to his lack of self confidence, his fragile ego and an inability to actually listen to advice from those known to be experts on the relevant issue. One can just imagine Donald Trump taking offense at some action by the North Koreans and starting a war.
