Kim Jong Un understands American politics very well

I’m not saying we won’t get our hair mussed ….

A North Korean official told CNN the regime first wants to develop an intercontinental ballistic missile capable of going “all the way to the East coast of the mainland U.S.” before engaging in diplomacy. North Korea isn’t ruling out diplomacy, but it wants to maximize its leverage before coming to the bargaining table.

That’s very wise of him. Any closer American cities just wouldn’t be that big of a big deal, amirite? He needs the leverage of threatening the east coast where the important people are.
