I am very disappointed in China. Our foolish past leaders have allowed them to make hundreds of billions of dollars a year in trade, yet...— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) July 29, 2017
...they do NOTHING for us with North Korea, just talk. We will no longer allow this to continue. China could easily solve this problem!— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) July 29, 2017

We will never accept a nuclear-armed #NorthKorea, nor will we abandon our allies in the region. pic.twitter.com/6oAhfehTwg— Heather Nauert (@statedeptspox) July 29, 2017
Real fast:
The United States flew two supersonic bombers over the Korean peninsula and tested out its missile defense system as a warning to North Korea after it conducted another successful test of an intercontinental ballistic missile that apparently proved its ability to strike the mainland U.S. Just in case the message wasn’t clear, the commander of the U.S. Pacific Air Forces warned that the United States and its allies are ready to “respond with rapid, lethal, and overwhelming force at a time and place of our choosing.” Gen. Terrence J. O’Shaughnessy was sure to point out that while “diplomacy remains the lead” it is important to “showcase our unwavering commitment while planning for the worst-case scenario.”
It is not at all true that China can easily solve this problem and this is a very dangerous and destabilizing approach. https://t.co/xmV3HaO9Pj— Ben Rhodes (@brhodes) July 30, 2017
Ben Rhodes is Obama's foreign policy advisor. Anyone doubt the former Secretary of State under Obama would be handling this just a bit differently? But, you know, Wall Street, Goldman Sachs, Bernie wuz robbed!, etc., etc., etc......
It figures that after Bush I instigated the invasion of Kuwait and the Gulf War and Bush II lied us into the invasion of Iraq that Trump would come up with the mother of all tails to wag the dog, probably killing the dog.
