| We've got a lot of work to do. Lots of stupid people who need to be educated about the threat of these nuclear-armed countries. There won't be regime change without action. These threats need to be removed, and soon. The next time it won't be a balloon. [ResponsibleStatecraft] A large majority of Americans support talks aimed at reducing tensions with North Korea and China, according to a survey released Friday by The Harris Poll. The results are at odds with the state of opinion in Washington, where policy elites continue to one-up each other over how to respond to an incident in which an apparent Chinese surveillance balloon flew over the U.S. in recent days. Two-thirds of respondents agreed that the U.S. should "engage in dialogue as much as possible to reduce tensions" with China, while 20 percent said Washington should "not restart official dialogue and instead spend more money on military build-up." Support for talks focused on deescalation went up by five points since 2021, when Harris last asked the question. 20 percent of Americans get it. We need that number in the sixties, at least. Meanwhile, 68 percent of Americans polled told Harris that President Joe Biden should offer to hold direct talks with North Korean leader Kim Jong-Un, and 58 percent said the United States should offer diplomatic or economic incentives "in exchange for steps toward denuclearization." The Russian stooge Trump tried that and got nowhere. Fat, warmongering, and stoopid is no way to go through life, Bob |

| #2 Less hawkish? How many Americans care about Korea, other than wish it disappears so they can go back to watching their TVs? |
