National Security Adviser H.R. McMaster on Sunday attempted to interpret what the Presidents ersatz early-morning tweet about Rocket Man meant for his policy on North Korea.
I assume Rocket Man is Kim Jong Un? George Stephanopoulos asked McMaster on ABCs This Week, referring to the North Korean leader.
Well, its it appears to be so, McMaster replied. That is where the rockets and missiles are coming from, is North Korea.
He said the United States has to make sure all options are under development to ensure that this regime cannot threaten the world with a nuclear weapon.

I dunno. I think he could be talking about hisownself.
She packed my bags last night, preflight
Zero hour, nine a.m.
And I'm gonna be high
As a kite by then
I miss the earth so much
I miss my wife
It's lonely out in space
On such a timeless flight
And I think it's gonna be a long, long, time
'Til touchdown brings me 'round again to find
I'm not the man they think I am at home
Oh, no no no
I'm a rocket man
Rocket man
Burnin' out this fuse
Up here alone

I mean, it's probably one of the cooler things Kim Jong Un's ever been called.
