Ignatius: If We’re Heading Towards a Greater Confrontation with N. Korea, Trump Needs Country Behind Him

EXCERPT:

IGNATIUS: "But I come back to the thing that some of the people I respect most who have served in our military are worrying about as the year turns, which is the degree to which we are divided as a country. Countries fight well when they’re together. We have a professional army, but it’s almost too independent from the rest of American society. And to lead this country into a real confrontation, let’s not say war, let’s say a real confrontation with North Korea, somehow President Trump has to find the language where he speaks to more of the people and brings them into his vision of what he’s doing. Taking a country to war that’s as divided as this one is and pulling at the scabs, you know, making it more divided day by day, I don’t think is going to be wise. So if we’re heading towards a greater confrontation with North Korea, I hope the President will understand, he needs one country behind him.”
