Trump's morning tweets..."Hopefully" he won't have to use his strong, powerful nukes! GROUPHUG!

My first order as President was to renovate and modernize our nuclear arsenal. It is now far stronger and more powerful than ever before....




...Hopefully we will never have to use this power, but there will never be a time that we are not the most powerful nation in the world!

The idiot has no clue about military matters in the least.

A child in kindergarten is more knowledgeable than the draft dodger-in-charge I'm sure.

We must be the laughingstock of the world by now.

Trump is lying, we have done very little to modernize our nuclear arsenal and for good reason. Modernizing it would start another arms race. Minimum safety related updates are needed, but any full scale renovation would be viewed as an act of aggression.

Just how and when did you get your experience in nuclear warfare? Apparently the majority of our nation has no faith in you, especially since most of your reading material are 25 pages, twice a day, of only "good things" about you. That must be a difficult task for your staff because it has to be like looking for a needle in a haystack.

When in the Army, although it was in the seventies, my primary MOS (job) was a 55G20. A nuclear weapons maintenance specialist. We worked at least four years just to run through tests on existing weapons to insure thier viability.

SIX MONTHS? What a dunderhead. He needs to be stopped.

...a whole arsenal NUCLEAR in only 6 month ???

No kidding, who does he think will buy that???

Even conventional arms cannot be renewed that fast.

there will never be a time that we are not the most powerful nation in the world!


Being what he is, I assume he is talking about his greasy buttfat?

Well, yes then, he is the most powerful havocs creator ever seen in living memory...
