| | Re: Will Trump be a Good President? | Quote: | |  | | | With nuclear weapons, total accuracy is not any more so important. Anyway these are intercontinental ballistic missiles, ballistic means they go where they are pointed; just like artillery shells.
Even the first ICBMs built in the '50s landed with 5 Km of their targets so Panama is not likely  | | | | | They've not had much luck in launching missiles, many have exploded shortly after or during launch. And it's still not clear whether they have a warhead that would fit on to any missile at the present time.
And besides, even if they were to hit California, it wouldn't be the end of the world. They voted for Hillary after all | This user would like to thank for this useful post: | | This user groans at for this post: | |

They mount a nuclear warhead on their rocket, they fire it at Guam and it blows up on take off. Wipes out the entire NK political blockheads in one go.
Only problem with that is the hundreds of thousands of poor NK citizens who get killed as well. | The following 2 users would like to thank Medea Fleecestealer for this useful post: | |

Tom | | | | | I bet you've already checked the provisions in your bunker.
As I said yesterday, the missile that could reach California from NK, the KN08, could also reach Switzerland.

Senator Mitch McConnell said I had "excessive expectations," but I don't think so. After 7 years of hearing Repeal & Replace, why not done? | | | | | Picking a fight with the Republican Senate leader does not seem the best way to get one's legislation passed?  | | | | | This will all end in tears!! | Quote: |  | | | Donald J. Trump @realDonaldTrump
Can you believe that Mitch McConnell, who has screamed Repeal & Replace for 7 years, couldn't get it done. Must Repeal & Replace ObamaCare!
3:54 AM - 10 Aug 2017 | | | | | There was never a really strong link between Trump and the GOP and now Trump seems to be working on weakening the link. The White House people close to the GOP have mostly gone, e.g. Priebus, Spicer, Katie Walsh.
I foresee the GOP more and more sidelining Trump and writing new Bills that further their own aims rather than reflecting Trump's agenda. That leaves Trump with little recourse other than refusing to sign new bills which would likely bounce back negatively on him!

Used to be you'd have to hang a black man, these days you point out that CA is majority Hispanic and they'll let you in. It's become a joke.

Mitch, get back to work and put Repeal & Replace, Tax Reform & Cuts and a great Infrastructure Bill on my desk for signing. You can do it! | | | | | The more time McConnell and Trump spend fighting each other then the less time they have to work on any new legislation; fine by me |

The Hispanics voted massively against him. You did read the stats, right? | | | | | Whose stats? You may have missed it in Zurich but we learned most of our news and statistics were indeed fiction in the past fifteen months. Many here are still in denial.
