President Donald Trump on Sunday left the door open to attacking North Korea in the wake of the regime’s claim to have tested a hydrogen bomb that can be attached to a intercontinental ballistic missile. “We’ll see,” Trump said in response to a question from a reporter about whether he would attack North Korea. The nuclear test caused an earthquake in the region on Sunday. Trump commented on the action earlier Sunday in a series of tweets, writing in part: “Their words and actions continue to be very hostile and dangerous to the United States.” Later Sunday, Trump said the U.S. is considering “stopping all trade with any country doing business with North Korea.”
