…Save your energy Rex, we'll do what has to be done!

Later:
Being nice to Rocket Man hasn't worked in 25 years, why would it work now? Clinton failed, Bush failed, and Obama failed. I won't fail.

“I won’t fail?” You stupid stupid man, you fail the moment you undercut your senior diplomat, Secretary Tillerson. You are pushing North Korea toward launching nuclear weapons at us, at Japan, or at South Korea, all for the sake of your little man’s ego.
If we survive, it won’t be because of your good efforts.
