@Finn123 I'm not so sure of that, but I think we can trust the people around Trump will keep him from launching first since it takes more than a tweet to launch our missiles.
More seriously, Kim never built those things to launch first, but to ensure he can remain in charge of his regime. Given what happened to Saddam and Qaddafi, Kim's insistence on having a credible deterrent against regime change isn't a particularly crazy thing for him to want.
