"... if no deal is made he's blowing up the whole country with "very little" off the table."

[demmiblue]

The president is clearly threatening multiple nuclear strikes. I don't see why we're not discussing impeachment proceedings or, in lieu of that, military activity intended to prevent such an attack.

I'm generally of the opinion that we believe people when they tell us, then act accordingly.

1. He's going to push the button.

[kimbutgar]

3. I agree he's getting desperate and going to Nuke Iran and then cancel election and take over the country and

End our democracy. He is doing Putin’s playbook on steroids !

[RandySF]

4. To be clear, I don't think he's going to nuke Tehran.

But I think small nukes in strategic regions are on the table.

[kimbutgar]

9. I'm also worried about retaliatory strikes back

One good thing about living in SF we’re farther away from Tehran !

2. With talk like this, Iran is justified in doing whatever it takes to survive.

By any means necessary.

5. This is the war Iran has been preparing for

for decades.

With the clear complicity of the other gulf states in the attack on their country, they will launch ‘Operation Muah’dib’, the destruction of gulf energy facilities. If their infrastructure is destroyed, the complicit states facilities are fair game.

‘He who can destroy a thing, controls a thing.’

[Irish_Dem]

6. Yes it is said they have been preparing for this war for 50 years.

They are well prepared and Trump is emboldening them greatly.

7. Trump Once Asked, Rhetorically, "Why Have Nuclear Weapons If You Can't Use Them?".....

We, meaning the US and the world, are in profoundly serious peril.

[MerryBlooms]

8. If Iran has any dirty drones, then probably headed to US

Friendly countries. Absolute shitstorm.

[Iggo]

10. If nuclear is on the table, what would you say is off the table?

[ms liberty]

13. Peace, love and understanding.

Ain't nothin' funny bout that.

[Buckeyeblue]

11. I think he'll approve doing a lot of damage. I don't think he'll use nukes

Nuclear weapons will harm Middle Eastern countries that are friendly to Trump. I also think the second Trump launches a nuke, Putin will launch one at Ukraine.

Maybe we are close to Armageddon but the billionaires die like the rest of us. So I don't think so.

[LisaL]

12. Do you really think he cares about harming other countries?

[newdeal2]

14. Or Ukraine. He wants to be rid of that "problem" and Zelensky nt

[Buckeyeblue]

15. I think whoever is putting ideas in his head does

If everything is destroyed there is really no power. And I think they can do quite a bit of damage without resorting to nuclear weapons.

16. This individual has little sense of the power of human dignity.

Not everyone will make a deal with the devil.
