it s very serious. the good news is that for 74 days or so, the north koreans did not shoot a missile. now, i think that was because of some diplomacy by the administration but now for some reason they shot another more sophisticated missile and look it s a very serious situation but what i think i like here is mcmaster and tillerson talking more diplomacy. yes, they have to put out the word this is unacceptable what the north koreans are doing but then they re under mined by the president who goes out and says he s a sick puppy. kim jong-un i don t like the president being insulted either but this good diplomacy that maybe we re trying gets disrupted by the president s early morning tweets insulting each other, so it s an escalation is not good and it s happening again. maria: what about the fact that we ve got this enormous arm
