Describe the writer's thoughts on Trump's ability to influence North Korea and China, and on Gardner's comments on this issue.
He is a bigger idiot than I realized. 
First, he does NOT have the power to influence North Korea OR China by himself.
Secondly, he KNOWS that he does not, but he wants to come off as being tough.
Lastly, if Trump has realized that China is not our friends esp. on this issue, then how is it that Gardner is soo dumb that he does not realize this?
Or does he know it and hopes that many Coloradoan are that dump and will not realize it? Hopefully that is NOT the case.
