The bloodthirsy war hawks were also thrilled when the US "manned up" and showed the world how great we were when we invaded Iraq?

Making decisions based on trying to show the world how tough we are is very, very stupid.  Our country will go broke spending on military.  We already spend almost as much as the rest of the world combined.  The US accounts for 40% of military spending.

the rest of the world is laughing at us spening so much money on the military while going deeper and deeper in debt as a country.  North Korea is in China's realm of influence.  They would love for us to spend a few billion trying to fix that problem for them.

Respectfully, N.Korea is the one acting like a bully. The longer we sit back and let KJU strengthen his nuclear program, the larger threat he is to U.S. and it's allies. NK is lead by a nutcase. He does not have the power at this point to affect us but he whole heartedly thinks he does and is willing to use preemptively. He needs to be dealt with now before he becomes even more dangerous.

The rest of the world is not laughing at the U.S. I can guarantee. They are startled that the country which has been so passive during the last administration is standing up, dusting itself off and sharpening the sword. This country has been in a tailspin and Trump may be the type of guy to pull out of it and straighten things out. If he's not the guy to get it done, then so be it. However, we needed to change direction and stop letting countries walk all over us and become a stronger threat against us. We are hated by many regardless of what we do, so it's not a bad time to stop coddling to our adversaries and start strengthening our own interests and securities.
