Trump on North Korea: 'I get it solved'

Source: The Hill

President Trump in a new interview called for the United States and its allies to "solve the North Korea problem," saying "I solve problems."

In a new interview with Fox Business Network's Lou Dobbs that aired Wednesday night, Trump talked about his upcoming trip to China, saying he thinks it will be a "historic and positive" experience.

"And we have to solve the North Korea problem. It’s a very big problem," Trump said.

"It should have never been given to me. This should have been solved long before I came to office, when it would have been easier to solve. But it was given to me and I get it solved. I solve problems," he continued. "I’m very happy with the way the markets are going, I’m very happy with all of the regulation cuts and all of the things we’ve done and that’s what’s driving the markets."

This orange piece of shit is going to kill a lot of people by sheer stupidity and overweening self-love.

He doesn't solve problems. He makes them.

He's operating entirely on Obamomentum.

Everything was put into place and set in motion for eight years and he pretends he had something to do with it. He's spent 9 months wetting the bed with his nuttertwitters.

And he has the smartest brain.

He's told us this,
as well as "I will not lie to you"

yet Trump has got our navy doing battle games off their shore and fly overs to antagonize NK never once thinking of the future damage to SK. Trump is tying to start a war and should just STFU

You mean, other than developing a nuclear program and an intercontinental missile delivery system, defying security council resolutions, negotiating for years in bad faith, kidnapping foreign citizens, and torturing a US citizen to death?

I mean nothing, yeah, except for those minor things.

which country has invaded the most countries, the US or North Korea. Which country is more likely to be invaded by the other. At this point which country can protect itself from the other country. And most countries only follow UN resolutions they like such as every country in the Middle East. Most veterans I know have a saying, I don't know if non veterans use it. I love my country, it is the government I don't trust. This reply does in no way mean I like or trust North Korea' s government.
