Grassley signals possible force on North Korea options
Senator Chuck Grassley told a Mount Pleasant Rotary crowd that military action against North Korea cannot be ruled out though economic pressure is favored. He warned a military strike could allow Kim Jong Un to threaten Seoul and urged sanctions, including against Chinese banks, while expressing skepticism about the Trump Putin meet and noting CIA reports of interference in the 2016 vote. Grassley campaigned with Iowa business leaders in Columbus Junction and continues a 99 county tour in southeast Iowa.
