In U.N. Speech, Trump Threatens to ‘Totally Destroy’ North Korea: ‘Rocket Man Is on a Suicide Mission’ – By Adam Shaw (breitbart.com) / Sept 19 2017

UNITED NATIONS — President Trump gave his starkest warning yet to the North Korean regime Tuesday, telling the United Nations General Assembly that the U.S. is prepared to destroy the rogue regime if forced to defend itself.
“The U.S. has great strength and patience, but if it is forced to defend itself or its allies, we will have no choice but to totally destroy North Korea,” Trump warned in his speech.
“Rocket Man is on a suicide mission for himself and his regime,” Trump said, referring to North Korean dictator Kim Jong-un. “The U.S. is ready, willing, and able, but hopefully, this will not be necessary.”
It is not the first time Trump has made the reference to “Rocket Man,” having done so in a tweet Sunday:

Trump was expected to focus on North Korea, particularly in the wake of its recent missile launches and a hydrogen bomb test last month, but diplomats and commentators are likely to have been surprised by the nickname and the stark warning.
The United Nations Security Council has imposed multiple rounds of sanctions on the rogue regime, limiting its exports by 90 percent — but Trump has warned that they are “not a big deal” and only a small step compared to what needs to be done
In the full-throated speech, where he also took aim at Iran and Venezuela in particular, Trump also attacked nations such as Russia and China, although he did not mention them by name, for trading with North Korea even as it brings the world to the brink of nuclear war.
“It is an outrage that some nations would not only trade with such a regime, but would arm, supply, and financially support a country that imperils the world with nuclear conflict,” he said.
He also said that he hoped the U.N. would work to de-escalate North Korea’s aggression: “That’s what the United Nations is for. Let’s see how they do.”

PB/TK – Absolutely showing strength in front of the World body is setting the bar, but to then lower the bar you just set with sarcasm and name-calling just takes away the strength of that threat. “I’m gonna kick your ass,” says the bully as he picks his ass on the playground.
