Suppose Putin and the Kremlin have their OWN plan if Trump launches a nuke against ANY part of the world?
IOW, Trump launches a nuke at Iran and five minutes later, there are nukes coming for this country?

If Trump orders an aggressive launch and the orders are executed, the USA is finished in its current structure. The rest of the world will freeze us out and rebuild a world with trade between Europe, Canada, Mexico, Brazil, China and India. We will be international pariahs for 3 generations.
Trump wants to nuke someone, and in his debilitated and crumbling mind, he may even feel the cold claws of death on his cankles and be thinking its now or never for him...

(1,450 posts)Would nuke the USA over Iran. I do think it would make it more likely that other countries will take the gloves off and use their own. Think India/Pakistan, North Korea/South Korea, Russia/Ukraine. I dont actually think China would nuke Taiwan. They want Taiwan in good shape, especially the chip industry.

It's only a drone's throw from MAL.
