Prediction -- the ignorant nutjob inbred dwarf running the illegal Pyongyang regime won't be an issue in the 2018 midterm election campaign. The Chinese like having his stupid ass out there, because it takes the heat off their drive toward hegemony, as they whistle "The East Is Red". This missile barrage is obviously directed at the Norks, but to keep it from being a humiliation, the pissheads running Beijing will have to do something about it, and make it look like they didn't.
