Trump aside, for something to happen you would have to have multiple countries and those leaders all “panic” for something like this to happen. I know I don’t have the strongest faith in government, but I am quite certain everyone has plans in place to react to NK accordingly. Most of them probably have new US Wildcard scenarios in place.
I guess I don’t really fear NK being goad to do anything, because Kim Jong Un isn’t completely insane and likes being alive. I think much of the media reaction is fear mongering - which is bad - because fear leads to people supporting shit they shouldn’t, as you noted with the numbers uptick.
If I were the conspiracy type, I would think he did this to weaken Asian markets, which has taken a tumble from this. But honestly, I don’t think he is some mastermind orchestrating economic chaos to profit from. He’s an idiot on twitter.
That’s baloney.
Every thing I’ve read says their rockets aren’t capable of physically getting to the main land US. ICBMs are literally rocket science and it’s a bitch to get something that big with that large of a payload up into space and back down where you want it.
