Putin will not activate nuclear missiles. Ever heard of mutually assured destruction?
Maybe he is going senile. And no one is brave enough to stop him. Plus with hypersonic nuclear weapons maybe he believes he could do a decapitation strike.
If he does drop an atomic bomb on a US city do we have a plan of action ?
Putin has just put Russias Nukes on High Alert/Standby against NATO.

“Senior officials of the leading Nato countries also allow aggressive statements against our country, therefore I order the minister of Defense and the chief of the general staff [of the Russian armed forces] to transfer the deterrence forces of the Russian army to a special mode of combat duty,” Putin said in televised comments.
“Western countries aren’t only taking unfriendly actions against our country in the economic sphere, but top officials from leading Nato members made aggressive statements regarding our country.
It is not immediately clear what the “special mode of combat duty” entails. Putin has warned foreign countries not to interfere in his invasion of Ukraine, saying it could lead to “consequences they have never seen”. He has positioned anti-air missiles and other advanced missile systems in Belarus and deployed his fleet to the Black Sea in an effort to prevent a western intervention in Ukraine.
One would think that those around Putin would have some sense of self-preservation, even if he is ready to take the world out with him.
He does. He won't let anyone who moves about the 'outside', come within 40' of him. He's a crazy as Hitler in his waning days and should be understood as such.
He's the man on the ledge, with a dead man switch for his nukes. If he goes, so does the world.
Danger Will Robinson... danger.
