There is a crazy man who has nukes and is a threat to the United States. But it ain’t Kim Jung Un.

Instead of working back-door channels to try and ease world tensions, Trump and Mattis are escalating the situation with muscle flexing rhetoric. But the question is, why? Why would Kim launch unless he felt threatened by an unstable Trump, surrounded not by seasoned diplomats, but by men whose expertise is war.

It’s time for the grown-ups to stand-up. Now!
