U.S. Ambassador to the United Nations Nikki Haley said if diplomatic measures with North Korea continue to fail, Defense Secretary James Mattis is ready to "take care" of the situation.

"We wanted to be responsible and go through all diplomatic means to get their attention first. If that doesn't work, General Mattis will take care of it," Haley told CNN's Dana Bash on "State of the Union."

"If North Korea keeps on with this reckless behavior, the United States has to defend itself or defend its allies in anyway, North Korea will be destroyed, and we know that and none of us want that. None of us want war," she continued. Haley's comments come days after North Korea launched its second ballistic missile over Japanese airspace in a month.

The international community has looked to increase pressure on Pyongyang after the nation conducted a nuclear test earlier this month. North Korea claimed it successfully tested a hydrogen bomb.

2. Definitely

This is the most immature administration ever...........if my six year old grandson spoke like this, his mother, father and any one else affected by his childish rant (he is a child remember, Trump is not!) would have to have a
serious sit down talk with them. These folks are unhinged.
