He Just Made Tim Kaine Look Good (And That's Not Easy)

In 2016, one of the people whose names were frequently mentioned as potential running mates for Hillary Clinton was ongressman Joaquin Castro and his brother Julian Castro.  Hillary chose Virginia senator Tim Kaine for the thankless task.  I keep waiting to hear Hillary blame Kaine for her loss; it's about the only thing she has yet to mention.  In any event, the point here is not Kaine, but Joaquin Castro.  This morning this fool said on MSNBC that he knows that President Trump is "determined" to go to war with North Korea, a move that will result in millions of deaths.  This comes from a congressman who is on the House Foreign Relations Committee, so he ought to know what he is talking about.  It is one thing to spend a year talking about a phony collusion story regarding the Trump campaign and Russia in 2016, it is entirely another thing to charge that the President is actively trying to start a war with North Korea.  Indeed, this claim by Castro seems to me to be a signal of mental instability on his part.

Someone should tell Castro that if Trump wants to start a war with North Korea, all he has to do is give the order.  Until then, I congratulate Castro for being the first person to make Hillary's choice of Tim Kaine as her running mate look good.
