That Pesky North Korea Issue

I know you can relate to the millions of hungry people living in N.K. Cliffy . Why do you wish them to live in such a situation while their cousins live in prosperity ?
And that lunatic has his hand on the trigger . Can't you just imagine the power at your finger tips ? Don't you sometimes just wish , come on Cliffy , don't you sometimes feel that stirring wish ? Kind of makes you feel a little weak in the knees , maybe a bulge in your jeans , come Cliffy tell us .
I just watched a documentary on Trump going back three generations. I think If you watched it you'd have an entirely different opinion of him. He was never incompetent by any means. His older brother Fred was a bit of a "weak sister" who died a drunk at young age.
Indeed. The question is : Why is HIS language so provocative , degradation of others, reduced to a slogan level ?? Does he not realize that the words he issues via twitter as well as his aggressive comments set the tone for his administration and the country.
It will not be surprising to see more of what was seen today. His behavior , his words are literally endorsing destructive behavior by virtue of beingspolken by him in his powerful position . He is setting the example ..
exactly!!!!
He speaks in a emotional language because he knows we are emotional creatures first and the rest doesn't matter as long as the human is feeling emotional.
Facts don't matter to a emotional creature . The creature will ignore facts if he is overwhelmed by emotions
He speaks to people's emotions, not to their rational logical intellect
Because humans are more emotional then intellectual.
Thats why people can't understand wtf is going on.
Or how he won
Well yes, and no.
I mean, he certainly has provoked a lot of emotional response from both sides. The support and the Hatred.
We can probably agree there has never been so much emotional response for a president ever in history like we have witnessed for Trump.
Now he has to make sure he doesn't lose himself in the storm of hate he has created.
He needs to focus on positive things and ignore the negativity. Or it will consum him.
But i think he knows that.
He understands emotional creatures will react emotionally, and he provokes it, so he should understand not to take it personally.
For sure , that from a intellectual prospective his behaviour makes absolutely no sense.
This guy alone has done more for the environment by refusing the paris agreement then anyone who is still in the paris agreement. Everyone lost their fuking minds when he left it, And emotionally responded by doubling down on their commitments to it. Even China who were not even supposed to do anything is pissed off and committed to making a contribution.
And America is to thank for it.
Relax, Cliffy. Trump isn't going to do anything, unless Kim Jong does something stupid. Trump is a survivor and will not endanger either his physical status or his professional status.
That's because his staff isn't paying attention when he's throwing darts at random words on the board or playing with his Ouija board.
The thing is Propaganda perpetuated about the living conditions and the state of affairs in NK has been pushed since the first armistice occurred.
I am not suggesting that the quality of life there is good but since very few people have been in there and gotten out to tell us what's going on I am hesitant to think it's a totally abusive country to the point of letting people starve in the streets.
We need to know the truth.
They have a million man Army. If the conditions are as bad as projected is it too far fetched to think that there are dissenters in that army who could find like minded others to take their weapons and start a revolution........?
Not in the least but I know he does value two things for sure...............physical and social longevity!
And one or two other things no doubt. The documentary on Trump on C.B.C. T.V. last night was very enlightening.
Isn't that the same reason NK is in shit, they would bomb the US out of the blue?? Perhaps the words come from one side alone as they are exactly there same only the US is the good guy when they kill millions for no real reason. Just like always, do they even know everybody can see them for what they are. Puppets to keep the world as unstable as possible, and at the greatest expense as possible.
North Korea factories humming with 'Made in China' clothes, traders say
Chinese textile firms are increasingly using North Korean factories to take advantage of cheaper labour across the border, traders and businesses in the border city of Dandong told Reuters.
The clothes made in North Korea are labeled "Made in China" and exported across the world, they said.
Using North Korea to produce cheap clothes for sale around the globe shows that for every door that is closed by ever-tightening U.N. sanctions another one may open. The UN sanctions, introduced to punish North Korea for its missile and nuclear programs, do not include any bans on textile exports.
"We take orders from all over the world," said one Korean-Chinese businessman in Dandong, the Chinese border city where the majority of North Korea trade passes through. Like many people Reuters interviewed for this story, he spoke on condition of anonymity because of the sensitivity of the issue.
Dozens of clothing agents operate in Dandong, acting as go-betweens for Chinese clothing suppliers and buyers from the United States, Europe, Japan, South Korea, Canada and Russia, the businessman said.
"We will ask the Chinese suppliers who work with us if they plan on being open with their client -- sometimes the final buyer won't realize their clothes are being made in North Korea. It's extremely sensitive," he said.
Textiles were North Korea's second-biggest export after coal and other minerals in 2016, totaling $752 million, according to data from the Korea Trade-Investment Promotion Agency (KOTRA). Total exports from North Korea in 2016 rose 4.6 percent to $2.82 billion.
The latest U.N. sanctions, agreed earlier this month, have completely banned coal exports now.
Its flourishing textiles industry shows how impoverished North Korea has adapted, with a limited embrace of market reforms, to sanctions since 2006 when it first tested a nuclear device. The industry also shows the extent to which North Korea relies on China as an economic lifeline, even as U.S. President Donald Trump piles pressure on Beijing to do more to rein in its neighbor's weapons programmes.
Chinese exports to North Korea rose almost 30 percent to $1.67 billion in the first half of the year, largely driven by textile materials and other traditional labour-intensive goods not included on the United Nations embargo list, Chinese customs spokesman Huang Songping told reporters.
Chinese suppliers send fabrics and other raw materials required for manufacturing clothing to North Korean factories across the border where garments are assembled and exported.

Not all opinions are equally valid. Your opinions on Trump's policies are not valid because you don't know anything about his policies. There are plenty of people here whose opinions I disagree with but whose opinions are more valid than yours because they actually know what they're talking about.
I'm sorry if you were insulted when I said you didn't know shit. But since you think all opinions are equally valid, then you shouldn't be insulted when I say you don't know shit. In your worldview, your lack of knowledge doesn't effect the validity of your opinions, so you have nothing to worry about.
