Also...MSM is going ALL OUT to make Trump look unstable.
I PAID for them Use them
Reasonable question. . .explore the entire military inventory and examine nukes. . .why and under what conditions may the be used, and why not in some cases.
We are NOT prohibited from using nukes.
unnamed source, enough said.
Reasonable question to us...but trying to continue the narrative of ‘unfit’
Yes, the usual anti trump bozos were having a twitter meltdown over this, continuing the “unfit” narrative that Trump cant handle nuclear weapons.
Joe’s unnamed source is his divorce lawyer. This is total bull crap.
Not the smartest thing to say in a close election, IMHO. I don’t disagree with the question, but most of the voters will have visions of Hiroshima & Nagasaki in their heads.
Will the "Daisy" commercial be far behind?
Of course, we can. We should have nuked mecca and Islamabad on 9/12.
But waiting for the ad with the girl and a daisy. Trump will blow up the world.
Practical reason would be radiation fears, and the US has some pretty good fuel-air bombs. It’s a reasonable question. If the fuel-air bomb would do what is needed, why open the Pandora’s box of radiation fears (regardless of the actual dangers).
They have discussed small nukes for underground bunkers.
Your enemies have to know that you are quite capable of doing what needs doing.
If Trump is serious, though, I suggest for him better questions:
Why can the US test nuclear weapons? Why can't the US build nuclear weapons?
If it is to be an effective deterrent, the enemy has to believe you will use them if you deem your national security is at risk. It has been the reason why the US has never signed on to the idea of “No first use.”
For years, doctrine called for nukes to be used in Poland and East Germany when the Russians broke through in Germany.
Why not use them against the passes on the Afghan/Pak border?
The MSM wants to give the impression that the nuke launch button is under the desk in the oval office and Trump will be nervously tapping on it.
My question is - is there a reason why this is happening now, as opposed to in the Fall? Are they trying to inoculate against some coming development, or is that just normal? It seems to have ramped up... Maybe it is just due to the beginning of the general election
Trump wants to 1) Obey the law and 2) Know his options.
