WHEN Donald Trump takes office as new President on Friday one aide will remain ‘stitched’ to his side – the one with the briefcase needed to spark a nuclear war.
The unknown military officer will accompany outgoing Barack Obama to the handover ceremony at the Capitol in Washington before quickly ‘switching sides’ to The Don.
He’ll be carrying a satchel which holds military hardware which could change the lives of EVERY person on the planet.
Inside the briefcase – bizarrely known as ‘the nuclear football’ – is a piece of digital technology measuring just three inches by five inches called ‘the biscuit’.
This innocent sounding gadget contains the codes needed to launch a strategic nuclear strike virtually anywhere on earth.
Trump has already been fully briefed on how the system works, but as of Friday the lives of hundreds of millions will literally be in his hands....

Yes. You should be afraid. Not of Trump, and his nukes, but of the Jihadi presence, and influence, in your own country.
(Didn’t read the article)
I just want to find out who this numbskull is.
No, you should be relived that a true American, not a Muslim, Marxist/fascist with allegiance only to foreign interests, homosexuality and Alinsky Revolution no longer has his very incapable and unstable finger on the button.
But. The truly ignorant and stupid snowflakes of Left still think that climate change and intrinsic white racism and sexism are the biggest problems facing the world. In their world, peace is only achieved by appeasing violent “minority” actors and prostrating your nation in a subservient position.
“Not even when a neophyte community organizer with a drug abuse history took office.”
The CIA won’t even consider employing someone for a desk position if they’ve used any drugs in the previous year, but Obama had been smoking crack cocaine at Mike Signator’s house during his campaign right up until he was elected and then given access to America’s nuclear arsenal!!!
I remember reading the same crap in 1980 about the President-Elect at that time. Liberals were unhinged then, too (and wrong).
Given that a traitorous grifter fraud golfer had control for 8 years...we should be relieved.
The only person in the history of The World to pull that trigger, was a Democrat.
And he saved my father’s life when he did.
Can you have a nuclear war with CNN? Then maybe.
I spent 24 years as part of the command and control system for the control and execution of nuclear weapins and trust me, no one person, even the President, has the ability to use a nuclear weapon by themselves. There are far too many safeguards to allow it to happen.
Reminder: Hillary and Obama WANT war with Russia... Trump doesn’t.
I’m a former intelligence analyst.
Harry Truman would be real gobsmacked that Hussein Obama
has had all that power in the name of what was once a
halfway decent political party. - If Japan hadn’t been
attacked the way they were, my father, a WWII combat
veteran of N. Africa, Italy & Germany would have had to land
on Japan’s shores before I was born. I might not even be
here since he had already used up most of his nine lives
in those battles.
The answer to these idiots should be “Yes, be very afraid. Hide under your beds for the next four years. When you come out, if you can see Trumps shadow hide for another four.”
It's been a "briefcase" for decades. One would have hoped that the stuff could have been shrunk to a small enough size that it could be ON the aide, rather than in a conspicuous briefcase. That way, the aide could blend in and seem like just another secret service agent.
In an Army dress uniform? He’s not in mufti.
Best to keep our Terrorist in Chief and Biden far, far away from the satchel for the rest of the week.
