Trump has said in the past he doesn’t understand why the US has nukes if they don’t use them. I think he wants to go down in history as the first person to use them in modern times. This rotten sack of mayonnaise once wanted to nuke wind for fucks sake.

I think the plan is to put boots on the ground on Kharg Island. Iran will drone and missile strike the crap out of them. This gives Trump the excuse to nuke either their oil fields to irradiate them or Tehran to level the place.

What do you think?

    Trump knows he’s not got too much time ahead of him. He’s such a vindictive shitbag that it honestly wouldn’t surprise me if he thought, “The world isn’t worth shit without me in it! If I can’t keep living, nobody else can, either!”

    Unfortunately the USA is in such an unbelievable foolish and weak position in an play where they were in control of strategy, timing, exit plans, supply lines, gaining allied support, etc

    I would almost say that the only way for Orange Mussolini to save face and make an exit that distracts enough and deters any Iran ally from retaliating, is to drop (a few) tactical nuke(s) around the country.

    History has an odd way of rhyming. The Jews were the biggest victims of WWII, and now the zionist fuck they “elected” 9/11’d himself to get a war cabinet and start the next WW. The last one ended with 2 nukes and though many are on the fence right now, the use of nukes might end up marking the beginning of WWIII.

    In the last week, the USA was conducting military offensive operations on 3 continents simultaneously. There’s no way this ends with everyone retreating back into their corners.

      Agree on all points, except I suspect that WWIII has already begun - Russia invading Ukraine being the starting point

      We will only know in retrospect, and the “start” time will vary, by nation, i.e. for Canada, WWII started in 1939, for the US, it started in 1941

      …Personally I think nukes are very unlikely, as whomever is truly controlling all of this nonsense is stuck breathing the same air as us plebes

    He wants to use nukes because he can’t understand what the end result will be. Someone needs to let him tour the inside of the sarcophagus at Chernobyl, alone without any safety gear.

      I don’t know if I’d call 1945 modern times. They didn’t even have television yet. But, whatever.

      How about the first to use nukes in the 21st century?

        Uhhhhhh…who told you they didn’t have television in 1945? Part of me wonders if this is a rich vs poor perspective, or if maybe it’s a country location perspective? They started inventing the concepts of television in the 1880s, but consumer versions wouldn’t be commercially available until the 1930s. They weren’t in every household in the 1940s, but they existed.

        I think a good analogy would be the internet. People have this misunderstanding that the internet just randomly suddenly existed around 1995. When in fact, the technologies behind the internet date back to NASA in the 1960s. The reason the Internet started exploding around 1995 was because Windows 95 changed everything. Go on and hate microsoft all you want, but go on youtube and try watching videos of someone using Windows 3.1. I had that as a kid. I cannot for the life of me imagine having the internet on Windows 3.1, but Windows 95 just feels still to this day like a semi-modern OS design. I would argue that it’s a better OS than Windows 11.

        It was that accessibility that created an explosion of adoption rates. Even at 28k. Which I can’t remember if that was the max at the time, or if that’s just what my dad paid for at the time. It could be either.

          OMG that’s amazing. You are very smart.

          Anyway, do you think Trump is itching to use nukes?
