President Donald Trump , who has spend most of this weekend using Twitter tobully beleaguered Puerto Rican authoritiesin the eye of the post - Hurricane Maria humanitarian crisis , can not stop mashing that shitty tweet button .

On Sunday morning , Trump abruptly foretell on Twitter “ our wonderful Secretary of State ” Rex Tillerson is “ wasting his meter trying to negociate with Little Rocket Man ” Kim Jong Un over North Korea ’s nuclear computer program , directing him to “ salve your energy Rex , we ’ll do what has to be done ! ”

… write your energy Rex , we ’ll do what has to be done !

On Saturday , Tillerson had allude toseveral remaining channels of communicationbetween the US and North Korea , saying he had asked them , “ Would you like to talk ? ”

give that Trump is about as subtle as a plague corpse cast over a city wall , “ what has to be done ” can not be read as anything but yet another threat of military natural process . The United States President has been threatening to wipe North Korea off the single-valued function for weeks — and Tillerson himself has had his share ofnegotiations - are - over braggadocio — but this particular tweet is famous as a public digging against his own secretary of state for ostensibly attempt to fend off a horrifying warfare between some of the most heavily armed military machine on the planet .

Such a war between North Korea and US - gage South Korea could rapidly turn into a major regional conflict orpotentially even World War III , and even a non - nuclear state of war could result intens or hundreds of one thousand of deathsamong combatant and civilians on either side of the firing line . It ’s basically a fool ’s errand to determinewhat ’s going on in Trump ’s headthat he keeps on trying to make that bechance , but we ’re all going to have to subsist in a world shaped by the consequences of his actions . That includes Tillerson , who may well decide he ’s had enough and followdozens of other officialsout the room access .

Update 3:35pm ET : The president hascontinued to tweetabout North Korea , offer a terrifying feeling into his inner soliloquy on the subject of destroying Kim Jong Un ’s regime .

“ Being dainty to Rocket Man has n’t worked in 25 year , why would it crop now ? ” Trump tweeted . “ Clinton break down , Bush die , and Obama fail . ”

“ I wo n’t betray , ” he concluded .

Being nice to Rocket Man has n’t worked in 25 years , why would it work now ? Clinton failed , Bush failed , and Obama failed . I wo n’t give way .
