    No brainer to stoke up a nuclear crisis to move your approval ratings from 36% to the 40s I would have thought

    Yes, only when he does what's required by his handlers will he receive the praise he craves. I have never believed he stands for anything other than consolidating his family's wealth and influence.

    If it all goes well...

    It could be nothing more than that.
    While he may have looked like he simply handled it poorly (so far) to some of us reserved Brits, quite possibly it looks like mighty fine stuff to a greater proportion of his own electorate.

    Kim Jong-un would need to be on-board surely - in order to mitigate the risk of something super crazy occurring out of misunderstanding or knee-jerk, which would then require a response in turn?
    If they are on board I guess NK get some kind of benefit - sanctions lifted or whatever - in lieu of playing nice.

    Like a few others here I often have to remind myself that Trump is indeed US president. My own theory is two bored stupid globalist big hitters (say a Rothschild and a Rockefeller) struck a 'Changing Places' type bet some years back. One maintained he could ensure (literally) any US citizen be elected president without having to resort to any ballot rigging. The other stated he couldn't whereby he was asked to take the one dollar bet and name his worst possible choice. Of course, he chose this stupefyingly ridiculous character Donald Trump and lost the wager.

    If only chocolate cake could talk. Xi is the regional power broker, so nothing is going down without his involvement in the matter.
