If this isn't a stunt, this whole NK thing may be more serious that we have thought.

The entire U.S. Senate has been invited to the White House for a briefing Wednesday on the North Korea situation, amid escalating tensions over the countrys missile tests and bellicose rhetoric.
White House Press Secretary Sean Spicer confirmed the upcoming briefing, for all 100 senators, on Monday.
Secretary of State Rex Tillerson, Secretary of Defense Jim Mattis, Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff Gen. Joseph Dunford and Director of National Intelligence Dan Coats plan to provide the update to lawmakers.
It is rare for the entire Senate to be invited to such a briefing.

This is MOST unusual. Am I the only one to be alarmed and a little worried?

he thinks President is a CEO position in a corporation. He has no clue how government works and that threatening the Senate is not something that will make people want to listen
