Wednesday on the “Tom Joyner Morning Show,” MSNBC host Al Sharpton reacted to President Donald Trump saying North Korea would face “fire and fury” in response to its nuclear threats was “not only frightening, it is extremely dangerous.”
Sharpton said, “Well beware, beware while President Donald Trump is on what he calls a working vacation at his golf retreat in New Jersey he has been busy stroking the fires that could be dangerous. His statement yesterday warning that if North Korea continues to send signals of nuclear capability that he will respond with fire unlike the world has ever seen is not only frightening it is extremely dangerous. Because given the proclivity of the Noth Korean dictator Kim who likes to up the ante and go response to response. Let us remember that we are talking about lives at stake. We are talking about our people that are disproportionately on the frontline. And in a nuclear engagement, God forbid we are all at risk.”
He added, “So we need to really, really deal with the fact that we have a president that is out of control.”
