I can certainly see the equivalence between Tweeting smarmy comments and exploding hydrogen bombs/launching ICBMs....

He shouldn't have to talk like that. It should simply be understood.

Exactly. It's just a pissing contest between two swaggering egomaniac children.

The Tweet thing drives me to distraction. If I had a middle manager, much less a CEO, Tweeting like this, I'd have fired him ages ago.

Trump is tweeting, in this case, to bait Kim Jong Un. And the fate of thousands of people are riding on the Korean leader's not taking the bait.
I was no fan at all of George W Bush, but his antics didn't keep me up at night.

At this point I really, really miss Bush and I never even liked him.

Who is to say? Both Trump and Un are egomaniacs.

I dont think you'd ever get Trump to land on the deck of a carrier and declare mission accomplish. But he'd tweet about it.

Can a Boeing 757 even land on an aircraft carrier? They managed a C-130 once, which is a bit shorter, has a longer wingspan, is quite a bit lighter than the 757, and has a lower stall speed.

Might be doable though.
