Washington Post blames North Korea's missile problem on ‘failure’ of Trump’s ‘naïve’ approach
American Thinker ^ | 07/05/2017 | Thomas Lifson

There is absolutely no shame left at the Washington Post. After 8 years of the Obama administration standing by as North Korea developed its nuclear missile program, the Post headlines in its “Daily “202” briefing:

The Daily 202: Missile test underscores the failure of Trump’s naive approach to North Korea

Wow!

Ed Lasky responds:

Yeah.. because all the previous presidents weren't naive and pathetic. Obama, the Nobel Peace Prize winner? Carter, Clinton, two Bushes?

And how about the Iran deal that enriched Iran and thus North Korea, their outsourcer?

President Trump tried with China -- more than any other president. He didn't wait long to recognize that did not work and is now imposing sanctions on China.

How is that naive?

No doubt it was the tweet of Trump body slamming kim dung un.

Brush fires?

Because we all know that N. Korea didn’t start their ICBM Development Program until January 20, 2017.

I thought it was due to the failure of Clinton’s naive approach. At one point they didn’t have the Bomb, and it would have been much less painful to deal with them. Maybe from Clinton’s POV, that was a feature, not a bug.

I guess giving N Korea blackmail payments for 20+ year on their promise to “suspend” nuclear weapon and missile development until the aid was all used up and then restarting the same programs was political genius.

And the beat goes on. Just wait until Iran gets there. There is nothing like playing nuclear poker with cards stacked against us.

I am not crazy about the way he’s handling it. He should stop talking about sanctions and China and start making it clear that the next steps will be military. As long as he’s talking about sanctions and China, they know nothing is going to change.
