Trump Warns Kim: "I've Got A Bigger Nuclear Button Than Yours"

Perhaps we should not be shocked any more by the tone of President Trump's tweets but he has kicked off 2018 with bang and his latest shot across North Korea's bow is quite stunning in both its seriousness and its juvenileness.

Apparently responding to what North Korean leader Kim Jong Un said in a New Year's Day speech - that he had a nuclear launch button at his desk, and that the international community would have to accept North Korea's status as a nuclear-armed nation as a "reality."

President Trump responded by tweeting "Will someone from his depleted and food starved regime please inform him that I too have a Nuclear Button, but it is a much bigger & more powerful one than his, and my Button works!”

This is only an argument two people with bunkers loaded with years worth of food and water would have.

No one in the region, including South Korea, Japan, China and Russia are happy to hear this. But then, bullies, especially those without a notion of what life is like outside their particular sphere, have to be challenged.

I'd like to extend an invitation to the supreme leader of North Korea to spend a month at my home to experience what life could be like for his people.

Fear and intimidation are North Korea's biggest weapon's and Trump is calling their bluff for all to see.

WWF diplomacy. The president even gives the players funny nicknames like wrestlers- Rocket Man, Crooked Hillary. Trump has learned a lot from Vince McMahon and is applying these tactics in the global ring.
