serious question, do Trumps words matter anymore? Nationally his words seem to embolden certain groups, but it struck me that there is not much conversation today about Trump threatening to totally destroy NK. Had Obama, Bush, Clinton or Reagan said such a thing it would have been non-stop coverage of that statement and analysis of what it meant to the US, NK and the world. But now there are articles and commentary but the general consensus is that it's all just bravado.
I'm not even necessarily against a President using threats to drive an outcome. Ronald Reagan did it with aplomb and rewarded for it. I don't see Trump ever being able to be taken seriously on the world stage.
