Added to that is the certainty that North Korea would invade South Korea (to nuke the troops on the border would be to cause tremendous damage to nearby Seoul, which would be the invasion’s first goal). Thus, North Korea has no fear that we will perform any preemptive strikes, and has little fear of any retaliatory nuclear strikes.

For reasonable countries, nuclear weapons are a political tool, but they are extremely limited in their usefulness, because everyone knows that reasonable leaders would not use them except after their country was destroyed and there were no political ramifications left to worry about.

Poor and unreasonable countries are able to use them in limited amounts, because they understand that only conventional weapons would be used in retaliation. Plus, they have little to lose. Their leaders are only the biggest fish in their small ponds but are tiny fish compared to the leaders of the great nations. However, actually starting hostilities would most likely end their reigns.

There is even supposition that Iran may use nukes to wreak chaos for religious reasons, rather than political reasons, and may not care that their reign ends.

Pick any nation within 1000 miles of him and extrapolate what might happen if he even accidentally drops a nuclear bomb on them.

No.

Does the short pudgy one make me feel less safe? No.

One nuclear missile fired into any nation other than his and NK becomes Asia’s newest glass factory.
