You really think a POTUS has the power to push a button and launch a nuclear attack?
Why do non-Chicken Littles think it would require a great deal of concerted effort, by a significant number of people who may not really be in agreement to nuke anywhere much less an American city?
“This is something he can do by himself?”
You think 0bama would not authorize a dirty bomb against an American city, say, in the heartland, in a red state?
It doesn’t have to be a push of a button. It could be a text message or a private phone call to John Doe.
