Trump might very well figure that losing Guam - or Seoul, or Tokyo - is a small price to pay for a second term as the American people rally around their greatest-ever wartime leader. ---

Phase Two involves arming every school teacher in South Korea with a nuke. It’s the logical combination. ---

> [@Fair\_Rarity](#): > > … What if Kim praised Trump like Duterte does? Went on and on about how smart and capable he was? Threw in a nod to the great electoral victory? If Kim flattered Trump, Trump might actually stop waving that metaphorical loaded gun around. … Trump has been trying to train Kim to do _exactly_ that since day one of his presidency. But Kim has been singularly resistant to the training. ---

> [@ThelmaLou](#): > > Is thump going to follow China’s lead and try to do away with term limits? Not just out of the blue, but if he can get a good war going, and people seem to be buying it as a legitimate war, then–sure. He’ll give it a go. By that time, of course, we won’t know much about it. The Internet will no longer be a source of news. And it, along with local television, radio, and papers, will be under strict Trump administration controls. Trump definitely has dictator-envy. We all remember how impressed he was by Xi, and of course all his admiring comments about Putin and Kim (pre- ‘rocket man’ days, anyway). So if someone with the smarts and inclination to make him a dictator (_cough_Kelly_cough_) said ‘how about it,’ Trump would certainly assent. ---
