Facing Trump, North Korea Backs Down
While American main stream media is fixated on which words President Donald Trump did or didn’t use about a murderer driving his car into a crowd, North Korea just backed down due to Trump’s … words.
North Korean dictator Kim Jong-un pulled back his threat to nuke the tiny island nation of Guam after President Trump and the U.S. military made it obvious that further threats would result in the destruction of his country.
Pyongyang’s state media reported early Tuesday local time North Korea’s military won’t strike Guam, a U.S. island territory of 160,000 people in the western Pacific Ocean that hosts American military bases.
The media will likely credit the course change to Maxine Watters or Chuck Schumer because … well .. that’s just who they are. https://www.conservativedailynews.com/2017/08/trump-backs-north-korea/

Although Trump's message may have been key, it might well have been combined with pressure brought by China as well. China has already declared that if the US attacks NK, it will defend NK, but if NK attacks first, it will stand down. China is NOT looking for the US to attack, so I'm sure it brought pressure on NK to back down.
Anyone who thinks that Kim's pull-back/re-think/change of heart is real, needs to spend about 30 seconds researching how North Korea has customarily solved its problems. Dictators of Communist countries have never, and will never, simply back down. Kim is a man who murders his own family members for not genuflecting in a timely manner when he enters a room. If there is any truth to the story, and he actually said he thinks it best for NK to stand back for a minute, then he has something up his sleeve other than a really fat arm.
In addition, no foreign leader is going to back down because of anything Trump has said or done. He has proven himself too much of a doof to be taken seriously.
