If it meant nuking even one US city to be known as "the one who nuked America," he would do it.
The pickle here is, if you attack them now, Seoul will be destroyed, and millions of South Koreans and thousands of Americans will die. On the other hand, if North Korea gets an ICBM, it's like giving a 5 year old a loaded gun with a hair trigger. They will threaten us and try to blackmail us with the threat of a preemptive nuclear attack on US cities. The threats will never stop until a horrific war that kills millions upon millions.
War is imminent. It's not a matter of if - it's a matter of where and when, and how we can minimize the destruction it will cause.
It's no secret why this is happening now. America is tired of war and weakened. Trump is the world's laughing stock. Kim sees his window of opportunity. He will end up swinging from a tree, but he's going to try and cause as much destruction as possible before his death.
Pray for a coup to take this bastard out. It's the only solution that has a good outcome.
