Our New President - President Donald Trump

Post Reply New Topic

First let me say, I have no proof that North Korea has submarines lurking off the coast of the US. It is speculation based on my profiling of North Korea.

The North Korean ruling powers use the threat of war with the US to remain in control, much like the government in the novel made movie, "1984" used a faux war with Oceania et al to remain in control of the populace. North Korea has made a wonderful enemy of us in the minds of North Koreans, and the North Korean people huddle together under the premise that we are bent on destroying them.

North Korean culture centers around family, state, and fighting Americans. In the mind of the average North Korean, we are their eternal enemy.

I'm sure there are still those in positions of power who know about this great lie. However they are aging and dying out and there will come a time when no one in power will remember the truth..that the U.S. only maintains a presence on the Korean peninsula to prevent North Korea from invading South Korea (and also likely for the sake of maintaining a strategic geographical position), and previously had no real interest in re-engaging North Korea.

Now enter the Trump administration. North Korea's leadership previously exploited the fact that the U.S. had no real interest in pursuing military action against them, by waging threats against the U.S. to bolster the great lie that keeps them in power. Previous administrations knew this was chest beating and ignored it. But not the Trump administration. North Korean leaders didn't understand that Trump is different. They didn't understand that this is a president who is as thin skinned and emotionally impulsive as they are, and that he was not going to let verbal threats slide.

Now they have a problem. They are up against the worst enemy anyone can possibly have. A more powerful version of themselves, who will probably not let them save face.

If North Korea feels backed into a corner, and is provoked, is there a reason they wouldn't lash out?

As to why submarines? Because proximity rules when you lack precision and the element of surprise. From a submarine stationed right off the west coast, they can strike an American base or city nearly instantaneously. If they launch an intercontinental ballistic missile from their end of the pacific, it's significantly less likely to his it's target. It's guidance can be thrown off, it can malfunction, run out of fuel prematurely or be shot down.

As for North Korea lacking state of the art military vessels, first let me say, analysts and the media have a history for underestimating North Korea's technological advancement. Analysts were saying that North Korea was decades away from making an atomic bomb, when they had already made one. Even if we assume North Korea's naval fleet is technologically lacking, they can still strike a major American city. I would like to say it would be impossible for them to win a war against us, but even with our advanced technology and the resources we pour into the military, we still have an embarrassingly poor track record against enemies which are at a technological disadvantage to us. We couldn't win against low tech, malnourished Viet Cong soldiers, and we haven't subdued gorilla fighters in the middle east. What North Korea lacks in technology, they make up for with cohesion, dedication, and preparedness.

You might know of the North Korean Arirang Mass Games. If not, look it up on Youtube. It's a demonstration of North Korean coordination. These groups of people practice much of the year, but it's not just for a show. It's also a form of military training much like the Nazis before WWII disguised their military training as civil works project units and scout programs.

^ Wow, Chronos. You make me want to invest in a fallout shelter tout suite!

More fun in the sun!

For some reason, these links aren't working for me.

They work for me. I'd put the other links up that I had been using before for well over a year, but someone didn't like them being used and I got tired of hearing about it. So the links above are from the actual web sites.

What's with these images I am seeing in the news of people giving Nazi salutes at Berkeley yesterday? And some guy punching a woman in the face there??

Antifa, which is a violent far left group, attacked a "Free Speech" rally put on by Trump supporters in Berkeley who were prepared and protected by a few Oath Keeper groups and bikers who responded in kind chasing them out of downtown. Idiots don't seem to understand that when you initiate violence that you are just escalating things, I don't think these anti-Trump radicals were prepared for their LARPing to be responded to seriously. I'm surprised the Berkeley Police sat back and watched all this, I imagine part of them were getting a kick out of Antifa getting a taste of their own medicine but that was a full on street battle. Things are feeling very Weimar.

Ha, that's brilliant!

"Hey, a bunch of us are gonna LARP the October Revolution of 1917 in downtown Berkeley this weekend -- wanna come along? You just have to bring your own bricks."

Trump's accomplished far more in the first few months of his presidency than Obama did in eight years.
I say, President Trump has earned his golf games.
And being the businessman that he is, I'm sure he is "putting" those golf games to good use when it comes to
Making America Great Again.

Reichwingers acting like reichwingers?

Happy Easter Everyone!

Those pictures made me smile! First smile I've had in a week.

Happy Easter to you too, nurseangela!

To use the ancient greeting for Easter: "Christ has risen. Alleluia." With the response "He is risen indeed. Alleluia."

(Now if I can get rid of this stomach bug. It never fails, I'm almost always ill on major holidays. It no longer matters, since my brothers told me to go hang myself again, after royally bitching me out about providing rides to guys living in a sober house to Church and Dwight's facility in Jackson Township. One tells me I don't deserve SSDI or Medicare since 1)they consider SSDI to be a form of welfare, and 2) their youngest son, who is low functioning and non-verbal, was kicked off SSI for reasons they would never tell me. They have a good sum of money to pay back. I advised them to hire an attorney, but I was told by them to f!ck myself. Since then, they are of the opinion, since their son, who clearly has mental, in addition to developmental issues (and yes, they are anti-Vaxxers, despite the evidence), NO ONE who have mental illness (which they will flat out tell you does not exist) should be collecting SSA in any way, shape or form. The other tells me I'm an ass for picking these men, who are trying to turn their lives around and stay clean. Then again, this brother and his wife are holier-than-thou United Methodists. You don't believe is the correct way, you're going to hell.
