Through a series of human errors, communications failures, paranoia and inflammatory tweets from President Trump, military events rapidly escalate. Poor DPRK guards using outmoded radar systems fire on a South Korean passenger plane, triggering a nuclear conflict, and catastrophic attacks on New York and Washington, with the ultimate loss of 2 million lives. .
