We could withdraw from the LTBT but there is no need too. If we need to test nuclear weapons, we can do so underground at the NTS.
Atmospheric nuclear testing would be of no benefit to the United States. All it would do is alienate most of our allies.

Didn't we make some noise a while back, about withdrawing from the test ban in order to make sure our old stuff was still making spec?
Heck, I thought they dumped that treaty. (or tried to)
