Both babies (Trump/Jong-Un) enjoy the namecalling and will keep escalating it. To what end? War? Why not just give them pacifiers?

As I see it, there is only one "baby" and name caller in the equation. That of course being the dangerous lunatic calling the shots in NK. We've waited far too long and played far too many games with that little despot. The only way to recover any integrity or moral leadership(especially in the eyes of the world) is to deal severely with these people. My guess is that it's indeed too late. You'll never reason with them nor obtain any co-operation in any form with these people. The time for appeasement is long over. The generation of Americans who were tried and tested in the fires of economic depression and fighting a world war, knew and understood this. Possibly because they were proponents and defenders of this little experiment we call America.When threats to national security are dire and there is no response, it starts to look like game over.

Some people have a very naive and over-simplified, not to mention unrealistic view of the world and how it sees things. Generally speaking the rest of the world does not look to America to lead.. or be strong.. they rather cringe and see Trump as an antagonist, poking an ants nest and provoking it rather than helping in any sane, reasonable or reasoned way.

Logic, (and I think many seem totally divorced and distanced from the concept) when two people, no matter what their standpoint, no matter what the perceived wrong or right, who engage in petty name calling and language that provokes and inflames - then both are in the wrong.. As almost any mother would say.. when two quarrel both are in the wrong. People have a choice.. if they choose to quarrel then they are as bad as each other..
