I say that Trump can launch nukes at ANYBODY he chooses. My right wing friends say, nahhhh.

Hello:

They say that Trump NEEDS the Secretary of Defense to sign off BEFORE he shoots..  But, if MISSILES are IN the air, Trump only has 9 minutes to shoot or not.  Do you think he has time to find the Secretary of Defense???  The missiles will BE here in 30 minutes. 

I think you're telling me that we're gonna be DESTROYED while the president looks for the Secretary of Defense..  Is THAT what you're telling me???

  • We Brits had hours of jokes about smart Americans giving the wrong code to Trump... not that we wouldnt want you to be able to defend yourselves in the event of an attack but that we are just so worried Trump might fire them off in a rage..in a fit of pique - maybe if someone slightly insults him...  and I personally am worried that he's such a dumb bunny and so temperamental.. that while he wouldn't fire them at us lovely Brits, he might just hit the wrong button and it'd wipe us out in an instant... 

    Sadly I think he will be given the codes...but I sorta hope the dumb bunny will forget them and leave it to the Secretary of defence

    Hello again, D:

    The only weapon he has now, is Twitter, and he ABUSES it no end..  Who, in their right mind, thinks he'll treat our nukes any differently??  He must be STOPPED at all costs.

    I don't feel comfortable with ANYONE with the codes, I have more concerns about other countries starting something that would no choice but to retaliate.

    Pretty sure if Trump gives the order the General in charge is sworn ti carry out the order- I seen that General on TV and he was quite clear that he would carry out the order. Cheers!

    Hello righty:

    So, instead of telling me where my impeccable logic is WRONG, you just tell me I'm nuts..  That's very right wing of you..
