"You talk about your nuclear capabilities but ours are so massive and powerful that I pray to God they will never have to be used."
If it weren't for this sentence, it could pass as a letter written by a mature adult!
Is this real? The quality of the writing is abysmal. Mature adults are all afforded understanding in the occasional lapse in good judgement etc but this kind of document? How was such an overt threat allowed to pass. The intention here is therefore clear. The US never wants peace in Asia.

could you be more specific about "The quality of the writing is abysmal."
?

What are you talking about? The level of writing here is fantastic for Trump; as a matter of fact, I don't think he wrote it, except for the threat in the last line of the first paragraph. If this was Obama, ok, maybe it was a hasty first draft but for Trump? He used several words above the 3rd grade level, didn't make up any words, didn't call anybody a shit-hole, didn't even make any obviously false statements. That's an "A" quality piece for Trump. Here's what I thought it would look like:
Deer Little Rocket Man,
Clearly, it's not working out. Your behavior has been bad, I mean really really bad and I'm not happy. Trust me; nobody knows bad behavior like me, and it's bad. No deal on the summit. We have bigger, better nukes; I know nukes like you wouldn't believe. You know what nuclear weapons are? Big, bad stuff with explosions to them and things. Everybody knows the US has well over a million nuclear weapons ready to take out North Korea. I will also personally strangle you to death with my hands, which, hand experts have told me, are the largest in the world. I once high-fived Godzilla and broke his wrist in 5 places; true story, you know it, I know it, everybody knows it. We will win biggly; we will beat the covfefe out of you, and I don't say that in a bragadocious way, but to simply tell you that you need to give up and go home.
So you need to rethink what you're doing, and denuclearize so we can NOT make another Libya out of you, but we will make you rich. Very very rich and very very happy. And you will also still be in your country. And you will still be ruling it and it won't be a shit-hole like the countries in Africa. So let's make a deal, and everybody can tell ya, nobody is more trustworthy in upholding deals than me.
Sincerely,
Donnie

Well writing and expression is not an exact science so it's not easily explainable in any tangible sense. It just seems to be lacking in general finesse. Sarcasm from other's aside, I thought such an important communication would be more "diplomatic" in a strategic way. Words conveyed more eloquently with threats, intentions, and warnings expressed with more subtlety. I don't understand the purpose of your question. It's my opinion the quality of the letter is shite for supposedly erudite elites. What do I need to explain to you? lol can't believe i bothered writing this. Don't quote me I don't want to respond to pointless questions anymore. If you're just wondering out of genuine curiosity, ignore the last part. Otherwise congrats on mastering at least four languages i guess?
