Ruben Gallego on Trump: It’s Not the Time to ‘Act Like a Tough Guy’ with North Korea

‘North Korea knows about our capabilities’

RUSH EXCERPT:

GALLEGO: "Well, right. I think also do we want to send a message? I think the most important thing right now when you’re dealing with a nuclear armed country with a psycho path as dictator, that you see in North Korea, what we need to do is deescalate. This is not the time to, you know, try to act like a tough guy. North Korea knows about our capabilities and willingness to protect our allies and so for us trying to push forward and push the envelope, I think it will create an escalation that could be very dangerous and tip over into a hot war involving nuclear weapons which is again, nobody wins when that occurs."
