I expect that when the threats come, the Trump spokespeople and attendant sycophants will be out there redefining the meaning of "threats" for us.

Nothing to worry about. Just all bluster busters. Now if they throw a nuke then dust off the old 25 megaton nukes and put em to use.

Excellent point. I shouldn't assume he'll make the connection.

Default Would you support a preemptive nuclear strike?

Would you support Trump using a nuclear weapon preemptively on North Korea (or perhaps another regime if the situation escalates)?

US doesn't have the training facilities to do that.

And if Army combat basic training is anything like I took in 1970, most Americans could not get thru it today.

No. Not preemptively. If a country nuked first than by all means go for it.
