The media has constantly been covering Donald Trump, giving Trump much more airtime than every other candidate. That's a horrible way to bring him down. Consistently showing the guy on TV is not going to hurt him.

"Donald J. Trump is calling for a total and complete shutdown of Muslims entering the United States until our country's representatives can figure out what is going on," a campaign press release said. That pretty much confirms the fact that he wants to ban all Muslims from entering the US for a period of time. More people have died in the USA from right wing extremist terrorists than Muslim terrorists, we shouldn't abandon our values just cause we're scared of a extremist group in Syria. The Bill of Rights guarantees freedom of religion, banning all Muslims is exactly the type of thing that our founding fathers were trying to avoid.

Back to the topic I assume that Donald Trump is sane enough not to use nuclear weapons while in office.

What good are nuclear weapons unless you threaten to use them? Mao Zedong once called the USA "The Paper Tiger" for he didn't think in a crunch we would ever use them! Nuclear Deterance is a very dangerous game and one not for amatures.

It seems that people have a real worry that if Trump becomes President then he will have his finger on the button ready to launch the Nuclear missiles.

Is this a real fear that people have? Is it a purely European feeling or do people think like that in America too?
I think it is ridiculous to think that anyone would launch a Nuclear attack anywhere.
It is bad for business.


Who actually thinks that Trump would launch the nukes and what would it take for him to get so riled up that the utter destruction of the enemy is the only answer?
But these same eurotards don't have a problem with the fat man in North Korea.

Trump isn't pushing any buttons.......well, not any nuclear ones anyway.

He is making some folk's heads explode, however.

Hoping the biggest explosion will be Cankles' when the time comes


CN.......

Over 1.6 million people live and seem to be thriving in Hiroshima and Nagasaki,

Who actually thinks the President can order a nuclear strike all by his lonesome?

Oh boy - we are going to be having these threads on a regular basis. We may need to have a Trump sub-forum.

Maybe we should have a sub forum about how to use the internet and educate yourself before asking inane questions.. Like maybe about US Nuclear Protocol

No, it is not war, it is keeping good economic relations with other countries some still seen by less aware as enemies. Trump's past attitude towards Mexico is bad for business; we trade greatly with Mexico and do not need problems. Same with China, the US depends on China for a good economy. Trump seems too nationalistic for our global economy.

The advent of nuclear weapons on missiles, (cruise, SLBM or ICBM) ended all those constitutional niceties like seeking a Declaration of War from the US Congress. A submarine launched cruise or SLBM launched from off the Eastern Seaboard would strike the nations Capital in only a few minutes. The call from the Oval Office to the Speakers Office or the Senate Majority leader asking for a Declaration of Hostilities might not even be finished before their time would have run out and Washington obliterated . Now this contingency is why we had an alternative National Command Authority (usually a junior General Officer (1 star)) flying somewhere over the USA or Canada able without need to get authorization from Washington to employ remaining nuclear forces in a punishing retaliation. My answer is the President can issue valid go codes for any nuclear strike in the Single Integrated Operational Plan valid at that time night or day. The only question is once the codes have been issued how many of the units operating nuclear strike forces comply. I think enough would comply to make it a very bad day for mankind.
