Politico: Trump warns North Korea: Threats will be met with 'fire and fury'
Trump's comments come after news outlets report that North Korea has created a miniaturized nuclear warhead that can fit inside missiles.
President Donald Trump warned North Korea on Tuesday against its continued saber rattling, vowing to retaliate with fire and fury never before seen.
“North Korea best not make any more threats to the United States,” Trump told reporters Tuesday afternoon from his golf club in Bedminster, New Jersey, where he is staying as the White House undergoes renovations for much of this month.

The Trump "Fire and Fury' comment - definitely speaking the language Norks understand.
http://www.zerohedge.com/news/2017-08-08/north-korea-responds-trump-threat-says-it-seriously-considering-pre-emptive-strike-g
" KCNA news agency reported moments ago that not only did N.Korea escalate the tensions up another notch, but explicitly warned that it could carry out a "pre-emptive operation once the US shows signs of provocation", and that it is "seriously considering a strategy to strike Guam with mid-to-long range missiles."
LMFAO
Russ
he is speaking exactly like the other overweight guy with the funny haircut usually says
Russ loves that about Hair Twitler, all the impotent yelling,.....
All the Trumpkin's do,.....
LMFAO
Also designed to induce bed wetting in hysterical leftists.
Missed accomplished.

Two of the best amongst hundreds of hits,
Doesn't seem to be fear,
Sesame Street doesn't do fear,
LMFAO
I guess lefties don't get that this statement was for Nork consumption, not theirs. But what's the difference?
And the tighty-Righties have no clue what happened in the North during the Korean War, and as a result, especially coming from the US, threats have no meaning to them,
LMFAO
Damn yer easy to bait. LOL
LMFAO, those NORK nukes are going to look so pretty, blossoming in the Heartland,
I guess it's going to go from "fly over Country" to must flyover Country.
LMFAO
/I guess all those Canada bound Haitians know best.
My honest opinion is that this thing will end with a whimper and not a bang.
The language out of Trump is also gaining an audience in China. Who just backed a US drafted resolution for more Nork sanctions. Who is also holding large scale PLAN drills off Nork's coast. The messaging from China is right in line with Trump. Those Chinese Trumpkins, you know.
Again - whimper, not bang.
Well I'm sure worried, I think I'll go for a walk along the bay then grab some In-n-Out and watch Jay melt down some more...
LMFAO,
As the NORK's made clear in regards to Guam,
US forward deployments of F-22's and B-2's are now their "red line".
LMFAO
Reminds me of the scene in the original karate kid where Daniel puts the hose over the toilet and soaks Johnny at the Halloween dance.
"You just couldn't let it go couldya you little punk., now you're gonna pay!.
Poor Kim such a glutton for punishment,now he's gonna be dragged to the fence for a beating just like Daniel and China aka Mr Miagyi aint gonna help this time round.
Nope,
Hair Twitler will have Steven Miller keep writing florid threats, ( as long as Miller stays in the Alt -Reich House, Vegas odds arn't good),
Russia and China will evade and pay lip service,
The NORK's will have re-entry done by late fall, probably a nuke test as well,
Some RAND Institute wonk will write a strategy paper in early winter, the Pentagon will pay RAND a few tens of millions of dollars of taxpayers money for the study,
The study will make the rounds,
And by spring, US policy towards the NORK's will follow the same path as when the Soviets got the bomb, the Red Chinese got the bomb, the Indians got the bomb, the Pakistani's got the bomb,
Regime Change taken off the table,
Scaling down of deployments and exercises that could be seen as threats,
Transparency and Verification,
Nuke to Nuke hotlines
LMFAO
Bet you double to nothing that Trump does base B2 and F22 to Anderson and calls Kim's bluff.
Fat boy will be clueless on his,next move as his Obama play book will be outta options.

BTW, challenging someone online to a bet, is as stupid as challenging them to a fight,
LMFAO
My thought is.... China, Russia, Iran and allies have planned and will use this DPRK flare up for making the BIG move on the US and allies. There alliance and planning has been in the making for some time. A time for sober reflection on Hair Twitter and companies part!
Thought Canada was familiar with sportsmen bet,? Obviously not LMFAO
A sportsman's bet is for "bragging rights",
Only works amongst Real World buddies,
On the internet it's just vapourware.
Sigghhhh
LMFAO,

That's like betting on which hagfish is gonna be first to enter the dead whale carcasses asshole,
Lol true mate but someone's going to cross the finish line first.
Yup, but it's become almost impossible to tell the hagfish apart, other than the colour of their hair and skin.
Maybe..there's Russian tanks building up on the east front - for their training exercise. ..total strength about 100,000
Coinciding with a Russian controlled US president this could happen and both Putin and Un would be psychopathic enough to go in a blaze of glory. ..Xi however is not. .he's too much enjoying life and wants everything to be controlled/nothing go wrong. And in a full out war against EU,US and other NATO allies things would go wrong quickly. ;)
