Yes, having a president who sends out raving rage tweets like Kim does or Saddam did is a terrible look for the US.  But the solution is to get him out of  office and stop electing incompetents to the highest office in the land, putting them in charge of US foreign policy.

I agree we don't want a Kim or Saddam (well those of us who didn't vote for Trump). But we have one and in order for him not to be a crazed madman full of blunder and bark to state run media, and the laughing stock of the world, he should have backed it up (or ended it on his terms and not the threat of Iran if he retaliated). Now he is like Kim and Saddam. And that is unfortunate given he's the American POTUS.
