Trump: US Is Prepared For War with NKorea
Local Editor
The United States is "totally prepared" to respond to threats from Pyongyang, US President Donald Trump declared.
"We're so prepared like you wouldn't believe," Trump told the Fox News program Sunday Morning Futures while discussing tensions with North Korea, which have soared over Pyongyang's nuclear program.
"You would be shocked to see how totally prepared we are if we need to be," said Trump, who has in recent months engaged in a fiery verbal tit-for-tat with North Korea's leader.
"Would it be nice not to do that? The answer is yes," Trump went on, appearing to allude to potential conflict.
"Will that happen? Who knows," Trump said.
North Korea's on-going missile tests have deepened tensions with the US and led Donald Trump to threaten to "totally destroy" the communist state.
Asked about US policy towards China, the North's longtime ally, Trump praised Beijing for "helping" the US by enforcing sanctions against Pyongyang.
