Let's be honest: Trump's U.N. speech was a disaster
By Cliff Kincaid
President Trump in his U.N. speech failed to mention that Russia and China are responsible for North Korea's nuclear weapons program. What's worse, Trump actually thanked Russia and China for helping to somehow restrain North Korea through the ineffective United Nations.
The "America First" president said, "The United Nations Security Council recently held two unanimous 15-0 votes adopting hard-hitting resolutions against North Korea, and I want to thank China and Russia for joining the vote to impose sanctions, along with all of the other members of the Security Council. Thank you to all involved."
Trump should have denounced China and Russia for making a nuclear North Korea possible. Then, he should have announced a U.S. withdrawal from "The House That Hiss Built."

Read Kincaid's reasoning, not just an open attack on Trump. I'm not sure I buy what he says. Bold statements. He may be right but I don't see it that way. That China and Russia are responsible for North Korea's nuclear development.

A few folks blame Pakistan on the NK nuclear development too. They do seem to have helped some along with Iran. It's hard to read the smoke signals and really know what is happening.

It could have been all of the above. Like you said, the smoke signals aren't exactly legible.

Awesome to know what Cliff's take on this is. I wonder what the guy I hired to auger out a blocked shit pipe at one of my rentals last week thinks about this? If I knew, it would hold about as much relevance to the course of my life too.
