Obama Rebukes Donald Trump’s Comments on Nuclear Weapons
NY Times ^ | Apr. 1, 2016 | MARK LANDLER

— President Obama on Friday questioned Donald J. Trump’s fitness for office after statements from the Republican front-runner that the United States and its allies should move away from decades of constraints on the use of nuclear weapons. “We don’t want somebody in the Oval Office who doesn’t recognize how important that is,” Mr. Obama said.

Speaking to reporters at the end of a summit meeting devoted to nuclear security, the president said the comments by Mr. Trump reflected a person who “doesn’t know much about foreign policy or nuclear policy or the Korean Peninsula or the world in general.”

The first thing Obama did in Office is stop any New Nuclear Arms Development by the Military. The first thing.

Obama has said it before. The same thing that Trump said. Everything is on the table.

Obama says stuff like that to sound tough and ease the fears of the People for having such an asshat in the WH - Trump says it as a matter of fact.

Trump now is in Obama’s head. An explosion will soon occur, as in all of the rest of such cases.

Obama’s involvement will simply draw millions more to the Trump camp.

0bama via his Iran deal has sparked an arms race in the M.E. DT had nothing to do with it. As for not buying Saudi oil, I’m okay with that. as for allies paying a price for our protection, I’m VERY much okay with that. How to undo 8 years of weak foreign policy? Start with a position of strength. Everything should on the table. 0bama has been rolled his entire term. Giving it away. Leaving behind a much more dangerous world.

Bo’s most obvious shortcoming is his failure to recognize the average European has a superior intellect to his own. BO was an organizer of community illiterates and they made him feel special and smart. Now he and Moochie have encountered so many people with a superior intellect they have no idea how to react; so, they simply make snide remarks and nonsense statements.

This is but one example of the technology and national security secrets BO and his administrative peons have delivered to our enemies. Even when he is out of office much more will be delivered to our enemies.

I think the difference is Trump approaches others from a position of strength, not weakness. Obambi is a beta all the way....at least when he approaches foreign leaders.

Consider: Russia refused to show up at his latest “summit” this week in DC.
