Former Russian President Dmitry Medvedev on Thursday told U.S. President Donald Trump to remember that Moscow possessed Soviet-era nuclear strike capabilities of last resort after Trump told Medvedev to "watch his words".
-snip-
"If some words from the former president of Russia trigger such a nervous reaction from the high-and-mighty president of the United States, then Russia is doing everything right and will continue to proceed along its own path," Medvedev said in a post on Telegram.
Trump should remember, he said, "how dangerous the fabled 'Dead Hand' can be," a reference to a secretive semi-automated Russian command system designed to launch Moscow's nuclear missiles if its leadership had been taken out in a decapitating strike by a foe.

Everybody.....just shut your mouth. Nukes aren’t tiddily winks.
Your Medvedev is the one making nuclear threats against us. Be mad at him.
You wonder why Ukraine is ferociously resisting the Putin invasion? Medvedev, former Russian President talking about exterminating Ukrainians.
~ Dmitry Medvedev, Deputy Chairman of the Security Council of the Russian Federation
“The sole question is what to do with them [Ukrainians]. They should be exterminated like rats, not even taken prisoner”

What I NEVER expected was that if Trump gets us into WW3, it will be at the urging of the Europeans, the WEF, the Neocons, and the Democrats...particularly the Democrats. But here we are!!!
Be mad at Russia. They are the enemy, not President Trump.
Trump is trolling Medvedev—and Medvedev is falling for it.
It wouldn’t be the first time Trump used trolling to shift the power dynamic. He’s not just swiping at Medvedev—he’s baiting him to force Putin’s hand.
Maybe Putin unleashed his barking pit bull to embarrass Trump. But by fighting back, Trump’s flipping the script—turning the whole operation into one that embarrasses Putin.
It’s an old KGB operator versus a tough Queens kid who learned the construction business in a mafia-run world.
My money’s on Trump.
Reminds me of of Khrushchev’s remarks while banging his shoe on a table: “We will bury you!!” Words of a bully, and all bullies are really cowards, will only try to act tough with those they see as weaker, will never stand up to someone tougher. When JFK stood up to him he retreated. What ever threat Medevev made, he should realize we have even greater military weapons. A nuke strike would mean total annihilation of both countries, possibly the entire world and the Russian blowhard knows it.
“Be mad at Russia. They are the enemy, not President Trump.”
Sorry, I don’t let the Neocons, Democrats, WEF, and Europeans choose my enemies.
Agree...
Russia has made a very big mistake by insulting President Trump and threatening to nuke us.
If you’re taking Russia’s side, shame on you.
Agreed. At least it was this powerless monkey that Putin keeps on a leash.
“If you’re taking Russia’s side, shame on you.”
Nope, we’re on the side of the candidate who won the 2024 election. He PROMISED to quickly end the Ukraine War, and he certainly implied that he didn’t plan to escalate it, and become another Nixon.
Well it could only help clean up the Leftists in the world...
He did end the war, at least on our end.
Traitors support Russia over President Trump.
He also said his motivation was to end the killing. When Putin was given a chance to end killing and talk, he increased the killing pace.
