NOT MENTALLY FIT: 36 Democrats Demand Biden Give Up Nuclear Codes
Populist Press ^ | 2.24.21

Hot Air reports:

Say, Why Are House Dems Calling On Biden To Give Up Full Control Of Nuclear Weapons?

Which answer do you want first — the fun answer, or the better answer? Let’s start off with the fun answer, but first, let’s specify precisely what House Democrats want from Joe Biden. A letter signed by three dozen of his party’s caucus urges the new president to relinquish full control over the country’s nuclear weapons in favor of a committee approach…

From Politico:

Nearly three dozen House Democrats on Monday called on Biden to relinquish his sole authority to launch nuclear weapons, in the latest appeal to reform the command-and-control structure so that no single person can initiate a nuclear war.

“…Vesting one person with this authority entails real risks,” states the letter spearheaded by Rep. Jimmy Panetta of California. “Past presidents have threatened to attack other countries with nuclear weapons or exhibited behavior that caused other officials to express concern about the president’s judgment.“

That’s why “a lone gunman white supremacist nationalist” was in “sneer quotes”...

And so it begins. They’re trusting the plan.

Now run your scenario in an ambiguous and complex situation—for example a couple of missiles where the source is a sub of unknown origin....

Debate, debate, debate, debate....

Boom.

Not to worry. Biden’s already given the codes to Xi for safe keeping.

Who really is in charge of the nuclear codes now? It isn't Joe.

And isn't it strange that Russia and China don't seem to be worried at all about Crazy Joe with the football?

It was the news media that did that color switch, that was back when RED still indicated communist to most of the American public.

It was done for exactly that reason, to elicit a subliminal, gut response from the American voters.

ALL MEDIA ARE THE ENEMY OF THE REPUBLIC!!

Even though young people are not very familiar with the fact that red is associated with communism, every reference in history or fiction written during the communist era associates read with communism. The five major communist countries in the world today have red flags.

The left is smart and devious. It’s too bad that they don’t use these skills for the good of normal Americans.

Damnfools. No President can go to war solely on his own authority. But divulging the details as to exactly how it works would betray a national secret. They’re getting their info from movies for pete’s sake.

He really does not have sole authority to do that.

Now General Jack Ripper does!

This is just more of the oh-so-quiet but growing louder push to remove Biden as quickly as possible so the unqualified candidate Harris can move into the presidency as part of the Socialist objective of delegitimizing and annulling the natural born clause from the Constitition.

Step one was getting a president elected with only one American parent. Step two is getting a president with no American citizen parents (at time of birth), thereby setting precident to opening up the American presidency to just about anyone in the world, especially China. And they’re using blacks to do it, so that any criticism can be labeled racist.

That’s what I figured. Dems being the color red hit too close to home.

Don’t you need the football too, not just the codes?

The football is a phone with codes. A really really good phone that’s never out of service.

Then what is the nuclear football, a miniature phone booth?
