Distraction. They’re all repeating the “fire and fury” part. That happens all over the world on pretty regular basis. Pretty nebulous words. The real problem were the next few words. “like the world has never seen”. That’s not an attack on a mosque or a church. It’s not driving down a busy street and using a big truck as a weapon. Or an attack with multiple weapons on a night club. It’s not even using deadly gas on your own people, as Assad is accused of doing. The world HAS seen Hiroshima and Nagasaki. His words mean something. They mean something very specific.[/quote]
You lost me. The way I read it, he was threatening to use nuclear weapons against them the next time they threatened us. His advisers said, “don’t read anything into” his fire and fury talk/speech which, as far as I can tell, basically means that they’re saying that he didn’t mean what he obviously meant (nuclear attack).
And obviously he didn’t really mean it, because North Korea threatened us a few hours later, and they’re still there.
