Every morning the world awakens to inarticulate twitter stylings of Donald Trump. No matter the subject his understanding of the day's twitter diatribe or lack thereof can be seen the incomprehensible way he constructs his thoughts. He sees these musings as a way to show the world he's has a grasp of complex issues. Acept he doesn't. For weeks he's been attacking not only North Korea and its leader but America's foreign policy efforts. Last week Secretary of State Rex Tillerson issued a statement about indirect contacts with North Korea. Immediately Donald Trump taking to twitter completely undercut any efforts that might have led to the easing of tensions between the two countries.
Today is no different. As once again Donald Trump vomited up more rhetorical nonsense.
Our country has been unsuccessfully dealing with North Korea for 25 years, giving billions of dollars & getting nothing. Policy didn't work!
In the 1994 America detected activity at North Korea's most secure nuclear facility fearing that it could lead to the construction of nuclear weapons former President Clinton came close to ordering an attack on these facilities. That never happened. Instead North Korea, South Korea and the U.S. came together and the Agreed Framework was developed. In exchange for decommissioning its heavy water reactor South Korea would construct a light water reactor to produce electricity. While never perfect the agreement actually worked. Following the election of George W. Bush the agreement collapsed after he named them as a member of the Axis of Evil.
As for the billions of dollars of aid given to North Korea a majority of that funding has come courtesy of South Korea.
Given Donald Trump's abject stupidity one should be concerned that he will America and world into an unnecessary war on the Korean peninsula.
