‘You’re going to get millions killed’: Internet aghast at Trump’s glib ‘We’ll see’ reply about attacking North Korea

A country that is already on edge about the cavalier way that President Donald Trump has respond to threats of thermonuclear war with North Korea’s Kim Jong-un was pushed one step closer to that edge after Trump left the door open for war while leaving church Sunday morning.

Responding to a reporter who shouted, “Will you attack North Korea?” the president waved, half-grinned and replied: “We’ll see.”

As you might imagine, people who value their lives and the lives of others were not amused.

A sampling from Twitter below:

Remember Melania's promised speech about her immigration status?

13. Yes! ...that was the most shocking part of the story

I have to believe that he just started after he was sworn in. He certainly does not believe in any Christian tenets. He admitted already that he doesn't have to ask for forgiveness from God as he has never done anything wrong.

guess so, and you can bet it's a RW, majority or all white church....but nothing new there. Sunday has the most segregated hour or two than at anytime in the ameriKKKan week....so far...soon the segregation will be pushed nationwide....and I won't be surprised if they try a "Trial of Tears", "Wounded Knee" solution to their POC problem. AKA S.African 'homelands'.

11. The devil can cite Scripture for his purpose.

Even if he can't, you know, read that scripture. Or pay attention to it unless it's a coloring book praising him by name.

Ever since he asked about using them and was told he couldn’t.

10. He's doing that "keep tuning in to see what happens" tv trick again.

Just like he did with the "finalists" in the SCOTUS judge pick,
and other decisions.

Trump understands tv, and how to use it and how to manipulate it.
remember he said his timing of the Joe asshole pardon was for ratings?

14. Trumps cavalier attitude about war

is probably because his wealth has always shielded him from the consequences of war. Why should he care - it doesn't affect him in any way.

15. Removal of Trump can't come fast enough
Sun Sep 3, 2017, 03:30 PM

Trump needs to go, and the sooner the better. Everyone is hoping that the military will disobey his order for a nuke on N. Korea. But what if they don't? It could be the end of human life on the planet because dumb ass voters put a nut job in the most difficult job in the world. Every time I relax a bit trumpturd does or says something else that makes me have a panic attack all over again. Please, Congress, impeach his ass asap. I would welcome religious nut Pence. Anybody but the orange anus.

16. Good news is, most Pubs were already very unhappy with him about this.

They're now even more unhappy and frightened. And embarrassed.

Significantly less than 1/2 of conservatives are the carried-away "my soul for you" type, perhaps 20% of all of us.
