Was this a tweet?
An article?
Something that KG told you over the phone?
A news conference?
Something Donald discussed with you in private over milk and cookies?

After reading your thread title, I was hoping for a little bit more than "Fantastic. This is healthy."

Peace,

"North Korean Leader Kim Jong Un just stated that the 'Nuclear Button is on his desk at all times.' 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!" Trump tweeted.

Okay now he's comparing nuclear dick sizes with KJU. This provocateur in chief is going to provoke a damn war.

Does no one have the authority to stop him? He's scewing around with the safety and security of our country.

Congress.

Congress is complicit; however, so nope, no one. Not until November in any case.

It was one of his tweets. He's overtly taunting NK. Look on CNN's website. I posted a portion of an article above.

Dick-swinging in the 21st Century, Trump tweeted today:

Oh dear!

I find it almost impossible (almost because I am seeing it with my own eyes) that the President - any President - could tweet such a thing. In my mind, It's just not even possible for this to actually happen. But it did?

What could they do were they not heavy GOP? Impeachment? Censure of some kind?

We're not two days into the New Year and he's recklessly stirring the nuclear pot.
