anything about the senator calling suggesting you ve been gelded before the world? it s not anything that bothers you? i checked. i m fully intact. the name calling may be unnerving, but even some of the president s critics concede it might be effective. i don t agree with all his statements and tweets necessarily on this, but i think the way he s handling north korea is actually really good because you finally have a stick being shown, a stick option to back up the potential for a carrot and to get a diplomatic solution to this thing. in january, the north and south koreans agreed to resume face-to-face talks on easing military tensions after a successful meeting to discuss the upcoming olympics. and south korea s president gave president trump credit. for pushing north korea to the table. another area where the president might deserve some credit fighting isis. the caliphate is destroyed, isis is on the run.
