Trump's UN speech was a "bomb".

Trump's UN speech was a "bomb"
literally .
OK, you tell me was there anything offensive about (1)>>Donald J Trump's crack at the UN speech this week? If you are a hard -core "conservative", this speech was the most powerful down to the point ever spoken at the UN headquarters since Ronald Reagan . If YOU are a "Liberal -Democrat"  , this speech is the most vile, with the most promiscuous abandon livened with insults . IF YOU are in the middle and "independent" as I am,  you get to dissect Trump's rhetoric piece by piece  .  First President Donald Trump made his debut at the United Nations General Assembly on Sept. 19, where he made a wide-ranging speech that was, well . . . memorable. While addressing an auditorium filled with the world's most powerful leaders, (2)>>Trump dished out threats to North Korea and took the opportunity to rehash his gripes with (2.1)>>the Iranian nuclear deal. The president struck an angry, nationalist tone throughout his remarks that bore an uncanny resemblance to the "America-first" sentiments from his inaugural speechIn addition to nick-naming the North Korean based on threats of nuclear
force, the commander in chief blasted 'loser terrorists,' the 'corrupt' Venezuelan government, and the 'murderous' Iranian regime and 'rogue regimes'. Again Trump's speech in every sense of the word was disturbing . Though he was on the mark  with North Korea , since North Korea has been threating to nuke America , launching missiles aka  (3)>>" Rocket Man" {Kim Jun Un } its still unsettling that a war could break out . From a independent  point of view may have been a bad move for Trump to threaten North Korea , Iran and Venezuela. What is puzzling about the speech is  he would not rule out a (4)>>"military option" in Venezuela as the ruling regime there consolidates power. Why Venezuela ? Get Serious !? Venezuelan leader Nicolas Maduro had requested a phone call with Trump, the White House said. Trump, according to an administration statement, will gladly speak with the nation's leader when democracy has been restored in the country.The Trump administration has issued sanctions against Maduro, whom it calls a "dictator," and more than two dozen other former and current officials. The U.S. accuses Maduro's regime of violating human rights and subverting democratic processes. Its crazy . Personally why can't our government leaders in chief not get it . You can't make threats like this . Our nation should be setting a higher standard with specialty in the United Nations . It is time to tone down rhetoric and start serious negotiations. The problem is that nobody trusts Washington politicians after Iraq, Libya, Syria lies. Washington politicians of both parties proved to be congenital liars.

NOTES AND COMMENTS:
(1)>>Donald J Trump's crack at the UN speech this week?Since Trump was calling out all the world's villains, he forgot Putin and Russia hacking of Democratic elections. Climate change one of the great threats to the world, no mention, in meantime major hurricane is bearing down on Puerto Rico. Guess Trump never heard of TR's "speak softly, and carry a big stick." This speech is an embarrassing disaster, Trump is making the US an international laughingstock.  (2)>>Trump dished out threats to North Korea.  North Korean Foreign Minister Ri Yong Ho said President Trump is the only person "on a suicide mission," one that is making "our rocket's visit to the entire U.S. mainland inevitable all the more."In a fiery speech at the United Nations General Assembly in New York Saturday, Ri responded to a string of threats from Mr. Trump throughout the week -- particularly Mr. Trump's threat to "totally destroy" North Korea if the U.S. is "forced to defend itself or its allies." Mr. Trump has said "rocket man" Kim Jong-un, North Korea's leader, is on a "suicide mission," but Ri said "none other than Trump himself is on a suicide mission.""Due to his lacking of basic common knowledge and proper sentiment, he tried to insult the supreme dignity of my country by referring it to a rocket," Ri said. "By doing so however, he committed an irreversible mistake of making our rocket's visit to the entire U.S. mainland inevitable all the more."(2.1)>>the Iranian nuclear deal. Iranian President Hassan Rouhani on Wednesday ripped President Donald Trump’s speech to the United Nations General Assembly a day earlier as “ignorant, absurd and hateful,” charging that it would be a “great pity” if the 2015 nuclear deal his nation agreed to with the U.S. and other world powers “were to be destroyed by rogue newcomers” to politics.In a scathing 23-minute speech to the chamber, Rouhani did not mention Trump by name, but referred to him on several occasions, citing his threats to tear up the nuclear pact.“It will be a great pity if this agreement were to be destroyed by rogue newcomers to the world of politics," Rouhani said. "The world will have lost a great opportunity, but such unfortunate behavior will never impede Iran’s course of progress." (3)>>" Rocket Man" {Kim Jun Un }. He combined his explosive rhetoric with repeated assertions of U.S. military might, and a demand that the UN live up to its founding principles of collective action and self-determination for nations.  Directly putting the country's leader on notice, Trump suggested Kim Jong Un could not survive an American attack. "Rocket Man is on a suicide mission for himself," he said. China allowed NK to have nukes assuming they would not work on rockets in which case the nukes would have been pretty useless. But NK thinks they are going to be able to play the MADD game and they will actually be allowed to launch a nuke on a rocket, even as a test. They figured this was just the next step in the "I'm gonna push Mommy a bit further today" game.The minute NK puts a nuke on a rocket and detonates it somewhere even up in the sky, that has to be the uncrossable line. If not, then we might as well let them have a 300 missile arsenal and start the Cold War all over again just like we did with Russia. And while Russia seems to have matured to the point that they can be trusted not to launch unless launched on, and China seems to have done the same, both those countries have significant infrastructure of value they want to protect. NK does not have that, and therefore simply cannot be allowed to play MADD - because they have literally nothing of value to be threatened.(4)>>"military option" in Venezuela. For years, Venezuela’s leaders have warned of an impending danger from the United States. They claimed American spy planes were flying close to the border. They said United States diplomats had assassination plans for Venezuelan leaders. And at times of domestic crisis, the country’s top officials have said that Washington is planning to invade.Few besides the most fervent government loyalists ever saw truth in the plots. But Mr. Trump’s suggestion that he was considering a “military option” to deal with the crisis in Venezuela may well breathe life into some of the government’s more wild claims. Trump's remarks don't appear to have been coordinated with Vice President Mike Pence, who arrived in Colombia on Sunday for a tour of the region. During his visit, Pence appeared to try to thread a rhetorical needle, keeping pressure on Venezuela without explicitly affirming Trump's statement about military force.
