The best possible outcome is to calm UN down.

Donald Trump, in all his deal-making expertise (lol), should invite UN to the US for dinner, complete with security protection and welcome. Make a deal to end the bullshit, open up new trade, etc. Maybe build a couple of fugly Trump Hotels here and there (Illegal yes, but he'll be in jail soon anyway).

UN wants money and respect. Maybe Trump can give him both.
Trump is doing all he can, threatening trade restrictions on countries supporting NK is a great move. What will China do, go to war???

NK is a problem and it will not be resolved with the present regime in power. Getting rid of them and allowing businesses into NK will be the best outcome for everyone, including the Chinese.
