Can you spell crazed nuclear escalation?The United States must greatly strengthen and expand its nuclear capability until such time as the world comes to its senses regarding nukes— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) December 22, 2016
Let's see the Trump Fanboys spin this one.

Your website content is now trolling Trump tweets? Go work for MSN, you have learned nothing.
ReplyDeleteIs that a debating point?
DeleteWhen an incoming President decides to engage in a sophomoric game of nuclear machismo with Vladimir Putin, who has witnessed his countries borders relentlessly encroached upon by the U.S. and Nato, it evidences braggadocio not brains. A Vladimir Putin who is seething as the U.S. Navy decides to make the Black Sea an American bathtub where Trump can play with his new Christmas toys, is not a good idea.
DeleteBesides, George Herbert Walker Bush promised the Russian Federation that we would not take advantage of Russia after the fall of the Soviet Union by moving troops into former Soviet client states. Trust me, Vladimir Putin has not forgotten what a bunch of lying scumbags the C.F.R. and Heritage Foundation are at the core of their collective souls. I have to assume you are ignorant of the role of the C.F.R. in placing it's member in virtually every single slot in every incoming administration
I am sorry that you have learned nothing from the catastrophic failure that every neocon endeavor has left in it's wake, I guess you don't know what it's like to not be lied to day-in-and-day-out by a bunch of renegade Trotskyites without being overwhelmed with a serious case of self doubt. Some people live to be lied to.
I don't like the idea of nuking up, but there is no violation of NAP here (except taxation). A libertarian and Constitutionalist can support a small government with serious defense capabilities.
ReplyDeleteWhether it makes sense to dump $$$ into nukes is another question.
"A libertarian and Constitutionalist can support a small government with serious defense capabilities. "
Deleteummmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm.........?????? this is sarcasm right?
A nuclear arsenal is per se not defensive - its the most aggressive, indiscriminate form of weaponry ever created
DeleteSure it is. It is a deterrent. If you attack me, we will nuke you. Defensive.
DeleteLibertarians can desire anything they want regarding nukes, but the reality is other countries have them and to not have them can lead to invasion.
When was the last nuclear power the US invaded?
Exactly.
"I don't like the idea of nuking up, but there is no violation of NAP here (except taxation)"
Delete"Except taxation".
"Except taxation"?
Funny all this time I thought theft was one of the ultimate violations of the NAP.
Whoa a Trump tweet! HUGE NEWS!
ReplyDeleteLets bring int he fainting couch. Wenzel needs vapors!
DeleteI would like to comment on those who say Trump's tweet is no big deal. This is just the same issue that Jon Stewart had. When he was serious he claimed credit. When he made a mistake he claimed "It's only comedy folks!". Trump's tweet is alarming. I offer no Twitter exemption for Donald Trump.
