I see now, thank you. After looking into this further, you are correct that these tweets threatened peaceful negotiations but considering North Korea's actions around that time

I'd say Trump's aggressive tone was more than justified. I may go so far as to say I admire his aggressiveness to a degree.

There is being strong and assertive and then there is being childish and belligerent.  You can stand firm against their nuclear program without sounding like a 6 year old on a playground.  Being brash usually only results in further instigation of the problem, not a resolution to it.  NK, SK and China had already begun talks about denuclearizing all while Trump interjected his rude, untactful and audacious tweets.

Just giving North Korea the good-ol' carrot-and-stick approach.
