Worry

NY Times: Trump’s Talk Worries Me, Like the Talk Before the Iraq War by Nicholas Kristof
The basic problem: There’s almost no chance that North Korea will agree to the kind of verifiable denuclearization that Trump talks about. Then the danger is that if a summit collapses, there’s no room to restart the process with lower-level diplomats. At that point, the risk of military conflict soars because all alternatives seem exhausted.

I'm not so worried about Trumpf and N. Korea because the military high command knows WAR with N. Korea is a non-starter no matter what Donald blovates on about. He can give orders but if nobody answer them he's powerless. Nixon found that out way back when.

With Bolton now in place, are you still unworried?
