Those ideas now that he is in the white house? >> yeah, i think he should revisit those. i dont know if that wait to go. every nation has a right to defend themselves. but to go nuclear is only going to cause a nuclear arms race in areas of the world we havent had it. and i dont think we need it. that is one of the reasons we are so adamant about getting the thad system deployed in south korea as a defense mechanism only and to show we are willing to work with our allies and protect and stand wi...

Given that were trying to deal with a wild guy down there in north korea that isnt playing by the same set of rules as everybody else? >> i think getting china to get on board and trying to put pressure on kim jong-un is good. and conducting joint operations with the south korean air force. thats also a good thing. moving the thad system into south korea, the terminal high altitude altitude denial system. and the biggest thing is the artillery barrage. seoul is within range. u.s. bases are withi...

That do not directly involve china, although i do hope we try to work with the chinese on them. and one of these key steps is to put this very modern, very sophisticated, antiballistic missile system in south korea -- the so-called t.h.a.d. system, therm national high altitude defense system. the chinese are very worried about that. its radar system can go deep into china, and yet, theres not a lot they can do about it. so, i think the president goes in it with a strong hand. i think the issue i...

Since chinas infuriated by this weaponry being installed on its doorstep, so theres reason to wonder and worry whether this is going to happen. >> i think the challenge is that the four missiles that were recently launched from north korea or from a location near the border with china, and china is concerned that the t.h.a.d. system is going to be, in effect, give us the edge, qualitative edge in terms of the balance of military power there. but i dont think we really have an option but to conti...

By the very cold temperatures and we continue to see it throughout the rest of the week. you look at numbers across the upper united states falling down below freezing and 20 in minneapolis and chicago. this is much cooler than it was 24 hours ago. there is a 24 hour temperature change we look pretty drastically anywhere from 15 ã 20 degrees colder now than it was yesterday. the cold air is in place once we start to see the system goes to the northeast. heres the rain in here is the activity. i...

Well continue to work with the government of south korea to make sure they have the defenses necessary to protect themselves. its the dephroeut of the thad system is critical to their protection as witnessed by this weekends ballistic missile test. f china and the united states in particular both understand the threat that north korea poses to the region. i think theres areas and concern that we can work tpogt to protect the country. >> a lot has been said about the access to hel care for women....

It certainly appears that north koreas missile program is becoming more sophisticated they need less downtime between the launches. we have had 20 missile launches in the last year. that part is significant to the international audience. what is also significant is the fact we have now seen two tests, one why they launched three mifs, this most recent are they launched four mifs. some are saying this is a possible sign that they are preparing how they could invade thad, the missile defense syste...
