Trump says U.S. military ready if North Korea's Kim acts foolishly

Trump said Thursday his administration is "more ready than we have ever been before" to take military action against North Korea, if that step is needed.


"I've spoken with [Defense Secretary Jim] Mattis, and our joint chiefs of staff, and our military, which is by far the most powerful anywhere in the world that has been greatly enhanced recently [and] is ready if necessary," Trump said during an event at the Oval Office.

The president's comments came just a few hours after he announced his withdrawal from a June 12 summit with North Korean leader Kim Jong Un. Trump cited Pyongyang's recent threat of nuclear war with the U.S. in his letter to Kim as a reason why the summit had to be put off.
