Trump's UN Speech

It's another quality of leadership that you tailor your message to your audience. The UN is full of diplomats who speak the language of diplomats. The President's speech - as much as I actually agree with some of his sentiments - was written for a completely different audience. That is not a good thing.

Trump's speech at the UN will be a great opportunity for him to show true American leadership and greatness. Or he can really screw things up that will bode ill for America in the eyes of the world. Anyone taking bets?

It is rediculous to pay any attention to anything Don says.

Only a dolt would tweet such a compliment as an insult to a nuclear powered maniac, then think: "That's so funny, I'll save it for my speech at the UN. It'll keep the deplorables excited!"

It's been out there since he started the garbage you're several hours late with your "prophecy"

The're correct too. He's dug through the bottom of the barrel, and then the basement, sub-basement, and still going.
 
His most loyal base loved it, including the authoritarian regimes he seems to respect. The others witnessed the decline of our once powerful world leadership.

The haters hated it. Shocker! :lamo
 
US presidents aren't supposed to talk like this. Nuclear powers aren't supposed to talk like this. This is just not normal and it's dangerous.

It's compounded by his choosing the very body set up to avoid such actions to make the threat.

Neither are all the appeasing assholes who think sanctions work.

He will just starve a few hundred thousand more civilians to keep feeding military.

Well, they did a fine job keeping the NORKS under control.
 
Trump mouthed the words, Miller was his ghostwriter.

From what I heard of the speevh, it was pretty boilerplate.. Nothing bad, but not really that great. I could have heard basically the same thing coming out of Obama's mouth.

the media is going to pick it apart and slam it.

they will invite their usual political pundits on to comment on brief segments of the president's speech.
 
President Trump is creating a no-win situation. By making the threat of pre-emptive attack, he must either carry through and become the greatest mass murderer in history or fail to carry through and further weaken the United States. The only way out is to state clearly that the United States will only attack North Korea if NK actually invades South Korea or bombs the United States or an ally. As Eli Wallach's character in the Good, the Bad and the Ugly said, "Don't talk, shoot."
I've seen all this before. Two drunks in the parking lot behind the pub, circling each other whining, " you better watch it, better not come any closer..." Unfortunately, sometimes one of them actually smacks the other and makes him cry.
North Korea is now a nuclear power. So far as I am aware, Canada is the only country that has given up nuclear weapons after having nuclear capability. As President Putin said, the North Korean would rather eat grass than give up their nuclear weapons.
And, yes, the United States is great, just like a lot of other nations.
 
Another point is when you want someone (Kim) to do something for you, don't insult them. It is not the art of effective deal-making.
