The Trump administration has shown its total weakness by handing over executive power to Congress in the most humiliating way

The Military Options for North Korea John Bolton, Wall Street Journal

First, Washington could pre-emptively strike at Pyongyang's known nuclear facilities, ballistic-missile factories and launch sites, and submarine bases. There are innumerable variations, starting at the low end with sabotage, cyberattacks and general disruption. The high end could involve using air- and sea-based power to eliminate the entire program as American analysts understand it.

Second, the U.S. could wait until a missile is poised for launch toward America, and then destroy it. This would provide more time but at the cost of increased risk. Intelligence is never perfect. A North Korean missile could be in flight to a city near you before the military can respond.

Third, the U.S. could use airstrikes or special forces to decapitate North Korea's national command authority, sowing chaos, and then sweep in on the ground from South Korea to seize Pyongyang, nuclear assets, key military sites and other territory.

"Trump's administration has demonstrated total impotence by surrendering its executive authority to Congress in the most humiliating way."

wonder if that change was intentional (ie. they have dirt that he is sexually impotent)

I know WV is huge Trump land, but how do they get their attendees? I would have to think it could be rather easy to infiltrate a large group of protesters to one of these where they boo the crap out of him

the most recent rally was in a 6k seat center. those can get filled for POTUS no problem.

the WV one can handle 9,000 people.

well that's even more benign, imho. They must have something on him better than that.

I get it's easy enough to fill, but do they invite people from a list? I'm sure they could easily get 500 folks that oppose him in the area to organize and create some havoc if they're allowed in
