Keep this in mind please. China, Russia and others also are shocked about this. But China and Russia have a much larger stake in that region than we do. Especially China. China's influence over North Korea is enormous, and consequently, taking time to see what these other countries do is obviously the best way to approach this. I don't know what Trump will do, but patience is a virtue and certainly in this case Trump should utilize patience rather than temper.

Just asking.
