Trump's war of words with N Korea serves nothing but his own ego and his inherent, sorely misguided, bully-boy nature.

South Koreans want their own nuclear weapons but doing so risks triggering a wider war

* A majority of South Korean residents support nuclear armament.

* A retired South Korean military officer said the U.S. should consider the option.

* Others have concerns South Korea getting its own nukes could trigger a wider U.S.-China war.

* South Korea is currently protected with U.S. nuclear weapons, but experts say some South Koreans question President Donald Trump's commitment.
