No he won't. I bet you he will either back off like Jason Chaffetz did, or get murdered like JFK was.

Tells you everything you need to know about how much the world thinks about Trump's mental condition.
It tells is you never tried a search like that while Obama was president. You think people weren't searching for that while Obama was killing civilians in Pakistan with drones?

US has conducted thousands of drone strikes in Pakistan and taken out of of terrorists. Pakistan will probably deny such strikes given the new foreign policy Trump is implementing.

Of course we still give far too much to other countries but it's a start.

Pakistan will be upset and economically hurt by America withholding $255 million in financial assistance. Do you really think its a good idea to upset a Muslim country that has 70-90 nuclear weapons?

What if someone in Pakistan's government or military gives Muslim terrorists a nuclear bomb?

Do you really want to upset Pakistan over $255 million dollars (when the US government gets $3.5 trillion dollars in revenue a year) ??

They are not going to nuke us, but they will stop helping us, and in the worst case, they might sell a nuke to a country like Iran, or even to terrorist organizations.

I think Trump is walking in thin ice.

Don't be ridiculous. So what? Are you saying every country needs to be paid so they won't nuke us? What kind of thinking is that?
Those nukes are there primarily as a defense against India because of the conflicts and wars those two countries have had and because India has nukes.
The fastest way for Pakistan to cease to exist will be to use a nuclear weapon and they know it.

the muslim terrorists Pakistan gave the nuclear bombs to, in your hypothetical above, would be just as likely, if not more likely, to use the nuclear bombs on Pakistan as the usa. that hypothetical wouldn't be too smart for the military or the government of Pakistan.
