North Korea accuses US of declaring war, says it has right to shoot down American bombers

[mrsbro]

me reading twitter:

[ginger]

It was nice knowing you guys.

And STILL some dumb fuck will say they never saw this coming.

[pixy0stix]

Edited title of thread to be more clear.

[pugz]

We had a good run CEP 😭

[wambam]

Here we go

[debatethis]

Somebody hide the Football from Trump. Sweet Jesus.

[eclaires]

This motherfucker. I said from day one he was first going to get our military men and women killed. And even if I agreed with him on everything else or could look past his rabid racism and lack of qualifications, all I could see was American soldiers dying because he's a goddamn idiot. But of course I'm the one who is fucked in the head because I didn't vote for him due to having a brother in the military (according to my other brother).

I seethe with rage every time I think about this. So many Rs pride themselves on their support of the military and they sold them all out for an Orange Fool.

[isabel]

Sigh.

[Linie]

Oh, sh**t!

You have to love CNN that is trying to find out which cities in the US could be reached by missiles.

And the rest of the world? This is no longer a two-country squabble.

[andwhat]

Why can't the 2 of them just celebrity death match it out and leave us out of it?

This is too many footballs for him to deal with in one day. I hope he doesn't get football the game and nuclear football mixed up when he's stomping around and issuing orders.

I can't remember where I saw it but there was an article the other day about about Hawaii preparing for an attack. It basically seemed like they were not trying to panic anyone but felt the threat of something happening was very real and needed to be taken seriously.

[DotAndBuzz]

Fuck every single person who voted for him. For any reason.

Seriously.

Fuck you.

I'm sure there are lurkers on this board who did, and will never breathe a word of it, because they know they fucked up. Or they're comfortable closet racists because hey, it doesn't impact them, so whatever, la-de-dah!

You voted for a megalomaniac who can't shut his fucking mouth, has zero capacity to think past his own approval rating and cheers of rabid racist crowds. You had other conservative choices who were responsible human beings. You could have voted for an ACTUAL conservative. I personally thought they had shit policy, but they were at the very least intellectually capable of understanding that words have consequences, and they all had the capacity for empathy and critical thinking.

This is who you put in charge. A psychopath who baits another psychopath and thinks its patriotic to play war and put Americans (both those who choose to serve and those who are civilians), and citizens of our allies, in harm's way to stroke his pathetic ego.

Fuck you.

[cous0226]

Which statement is NK referencing? I imagine this was done over twitter as most of our foreign policy is. Was it the Little Rocket man reference or the UN mouth diarrhea?

Yeah, so patriotic to start a war by tweeting about a hot-headed, missile-happy North Korean dictator. 

So mad at Republicans about this.

This is as scared about nukes as I've ever been, but it so, so, so reminds me of all the times I warned my husband not to get into a pissing contest with a 2yo because the 2yo was always going to win. But I can't tell which one is the 2yo in this scenario.

"Last weekend Trump claimed that our leadership wouldn't be around much longer and declared a war on our country," Ri said, according to an official translation of his remarks to reporters in New York. (From CNN)

The claim, was done in a tweet. I don't know how to link tweets though. 

[carmenere]

Fuck all the people who said HRC was a warhawk who would drag us into conflict. We wouldn't be anywhere near this point if she were president.

Off topic, but embedding a tweet couldn't be easier (well, maybe not on a phone, though. Are you on a laptop? I think it also works on tablets.) Click on the tweet you want to embed, and then just copy-and-paste the URL from the address bar. It will look something like this:

https:// * twitter.com/ twitterhandle/status/912356217753935872

You don't have to include or add any code, and you don't even have to use the buttons in the top of the create post box. Just straight text. 

[sparrowsong]

I keep opening this thread and then shutting it. What is there to say?

[captainobvious]

MixedBerryJam, thanks! The embedding seemed complicated, but clearly not!

I saw someone suggest this over the weekend.  Said they could raise money to help the hurricane victims.  I'm sure his foot would hurt again.
