CNN: N. Korea Says if Trump Does Anything ‘Crazy’ We Will Respond ‘Powerfully’

EXCERPT:

RIPLEY: "Hi, Alisyn. Yes, we just landed and had a meeting with two North Korean officials who told me that they're watching very closely -- this country watching very closely what President Trump is doing and saying on his Asia visit. Of course, he's about to leave Japan and head to South Korea, a very sensitive location, especially for people here in the north. President Trump will be standing and speaking just miles from where I am here in the North Korean capital and they have warned the president not to say or do anything crazy, in their words. They say North Korea will respond powerfully to any provocative words or actions by the president. And, of course, they are well aware that there are three aircraft carriers off the Peninsula. They view that as the United States preparing for a possible war. And they say that war could be ignited, really, at any moment, and we hear that phrase over and over again repeated. This is a touch and go situation that could really explode at any moment. But it's interesting because here in Pyongyang, even though all of this is happening in the outside world, one of the lead stories over the weekend was North Korea's leader Kim Jong Un visiting a cosmetics factory. And, in fact, you've seen a lot of field inspections by Kim Jong Un as of late. It might seem strange for an outside audience that North Korean media is focusing on these things but for people inside this country it's reassuring for them that their leader is still focusing on the economy. It's been more than seven weeks since a military live-fire test, which South Korean intelligence believes could happen very soon, Alisyn."
