Default Nuclear armageddon and the football

It takes a village eccieuser! Donald Trump won't be able to start a nuclear war without his Major Kong!

Seriously, while Trump does have some strange ideas from time to time (e.g. torpedoing trade), I believe the probability he'll start a nuclear war is very low. He's not a neoconservative, and in general seems to want to avoid war. The most likely place in the world right now to drag us into a nuclear conflict is Ukraine, and Trump's doing his dead level best to deescalate that.

I could be wrong though. His support for Israeli actions in Gaza and hard line posture towards Iran could indicate otherwise.

... MORE wasted complaints against Trump... blah, blah, blah...

President Trump is working to bring peace and de-escalate the
war-like situations.

If acts such as theese are a "football" - Trump has already
scored a touchdown! ... And America is ahead of the game! ...

Wrong. So fuckin' wrong. It only takes one idiot.

Like the idiot you admire. Sorry but I have to. Your admirable idiot actually thought there was a "War Room".







He actually thought there was a war room based on fiction. C' mon!

To keep from laughing.

Not sure what exactly you're referring to, but you do know the White House Situation Room was originally called the War Room, right?

"The concept of a “War Room” in the White House originated with President McKinley in 1898 during the Spanish-American War."

Here we go:

Quote:
Adam was particularly tickled by the idea that US president (and former actor) Ronald Reagan thought his war room was real. “When Ronald Reagan became president of the United States he asked the chief of staff to show him the war room of Dr. Strangelove,” he would often recount. “He believed it was in the Pentagon.”

Yeah, Reagan set the stage for the collapse of the Berlin Wall, the liberation of eastern Europe from Moscow's communist puppet regimes, and German reunification. He won the Cold War without firing a shot. His INF treaty, signed with the USSR in 1987, led to the elimination of almost 2,700 nuclear missiles on both sides.

What a fucking idiot!

If that's the record of an "idiot", my gut says we need to elect more of them.

My worry is not the actions of Trump but rather the fact that he is probably not getting all the information he needs or the information he is getting is structured in such a way to feed his own ego and biases.

That’s what you get when you’re surrounded by yes men and you are incapable of understanding when you’re wrong.

When a real crisis emerges during the next four years I expect chaos and confusion in the aftermath.

Of course you do. TDS dictates that you pray for President Trump to fail in his policies.

You know when you make statements like this you sound like a fanatic. It’s like you can’t consider any other viewpoint except slavish sycophancy to Donald Trump.

I’m not praying for Trump to fail. Experience just tells me to expect it.
