Brumar, Whoever I vote for will be an American. Every time a "Never Trumper" is asked who he is voting for, said "Never Trumper" never mentions anyone specific. Even I named the person I would vote for if I were a socialist liberal: Elizabeth Warren. Tenchusatsu

Kim orders South's buildings at resort in North be destroyed KIM TONG-HYUNG , Associated Press•October 23, 2019 0:42 1:20 Kim Jong Un orders South's hotel buildings in North be destroyed [ A firm move by Trump's ally, Chairman Kim- ruler of all Koreans everywhere, against the enemy regime in the South. ] SEOUL, South Korea (AP) â€” North Korean leader Kim Jong Un ordered the destruction of South Korean-made hotels and other tourist facilities at the North's Diamond Mountain resort, apparently because Seoul won't defy international sanctions and resume South Korean tours at the site. Pyongyang's official Korean Central News Agency said Wednesday that Kim had visited the resort and described its facilities as "shabby" and lacking national character. The report said Kim criticized North Korea's policies pushed under his late father as too dependent on the South and vowed that the North would redevelop the site on its own. Kim's comments came during a prolonged freeze in relations with Seoul and are a major setback to liberal South Korean President Moon Jae-in, who met Kim three times last year while expressing ambitions to reboot inter-Korean economic engagement. The prospects for that has dimmed amid a standstill in nuclear negotiations between Washington and Pyongyang, which faltered after the collapse of a February summit between Kim and President Donald Trump where the Americans rejected the North's demands for broad sanctions relief in exchange for a partial surrender of its nuclear capabilities. The United States and North Korea resumed working-level discussions in Sweden earlier this month, but the talks broke down amid acrimony. South Korean officials held back direct criticism on Kim's remarks, saying they need to take a closer look at the North's intent. Lee Sang-min, spokesman of Seoul's Unification Ministry, said the South will "actively defend the property rights of our people" and plans to accept any proposed talks with North Korea over the facilities. He didn't offer a specific answer when asked whether the South could do anything to stop the North if it begins to tear down the facilities unilaterally. Experts are mixed on whether North Korea is really intending to independently develop tourism at Diamond Mountain or trying to dial up pressure on the South to restart the tours and upgrade the aging facilities. Tours to Diamond Mountain were a major symbol of cooperation between the Koreas before the South suspended them in 2008 after a North Korean guard fatally shot a South Korean tourist there. news.yahoo.com
