He's such a fucking idiot. But he's only half a dumb as the people who listen to him.
I'm sorry, in case people who listen to him are reading this, I'm calling you dumber than him.
I'm so sorry, this is not helpful. I'm saying Joe is extremely stupid, and you are even more stupid. You're a fucking idiot if you listen to him.
"Don't blame the voters! boohoohooo!" - The Tone Police, the "centrists", the corporate media, and not a few liberal scolds...
Maybe half as dumb, but worse: a grifter, a mongerer, a liar.
Yeah, the guy who claimed he ends wars wants to start another cold war, while also indiscriminately bombing ships off the coast of South America.
Fuck this timeline.
The test site should be Mar-A-Lago.
Just nuke Florida.
You know what... I don't see why not. Can we get the God Emperor a front row seat too?
Don't forget to remind him not to look directly into the blast just to make sure he looks directly into the blast.
Fantastic. Let's add radioactive fallout to the list of things Trump and co are trying to kill everyone with.
Fallout is what's truly needed to Make America Healthy Again!
RFK might like to note that nukes can very quickly stop measles, COVID, flu, autism, brain worms, and also everything else.

Show him an old video, he won't know the difference.
nah, give him fist row seating. the closest the bestest
Trump earlier this year called denuclearization “a big aim,” telling reporters over the summer that "Russia’s willing to do it, and I think China is going to be willing to do it, too.”
“We can’t let nuclear weapons proliferate. We have to stop nuclear weapons,” he added.
Then fucking do it jfc
You know what would have helped denuclearization? Giving the Budapest Memorandum teeth. Obama and every subsequent president made some mealy-mouthed "We'll send a few old guns" to Ukraine, despite the deal being Ukraine gives up their nukes and Russia (lol), the US and UK defend them.
Every other country's leadership looking at that has reached the obvious conclusion: nothing but nukes that you yourself control will save you against a nuclear power.
Denuclearization by firing the whole arsenal. The fuhrer keeps his promises! <3
This is so pathetic and stupid.
This isn’t aimed at Russia or China, whom the article calls out by name.
This is a dick measuring contest with Iran and North Korea.
I mean - he made the announcement in South Korea.
Diplomatically, Trump (well, his administration) has stated to learn that befriending and allowing tinpot dictators to humiliate the U.S. is non-viable. So they’ve moved to cold-war era tactics of arms races and implied threats of nuclear holocaust.
They, of course, are focusing on smaller nations that while powerful in their own right, aren’t actual threats to the U.S. global hegemony. Not that I support continued U.S. dominance on the world stage, but it’s a weird priority.
Maybe by the end of the admin, they’ll be caught up to Clinton, who realized the best way to apply pressure was economically and via international partnerships — assuming the U.S. has an economy and international partnerships to leverage by then.
Jesus Christ what’s next week, “build a space ‘LAZER’”???
The hugest space LAZOR even bigger than the Jews!
I see your swartz is as big as mine.

The Cold War did more brain damage than the lead imo
My god have the last 10 years showed us all how weak this nation actually is.
Our ancestors would be ashamed. The future will condemn us.
Any wagers on which blue city it is that he'll test it on? Or maybe it will be Venezula since they've suddenly become a mortal enemy.
Nothing marks the distinction of a Trump term quite like the ever present fear of a nuclear holocaust. (Amongst many others)
Nobel prize, please!
I’m sure the down wind states will be super happy about that!!
They're all blue states so who cares, amirite?
Except Utah, but it's too red to change now, so it also doesn't matter.
It is likely that any tests will be conducted in enclosed underground silos in Nevada. The site to do that has been maintained at some amount of readiness since the last test in 1992.
He won't want it underground. He wants an audience at all times to show how manly and powerful he is.
Yet another sitraction from the Epstein Files and economic collapse
I thought Elon's DOGE was bad... We're amping this up a few more levels eh?
Why do we need to "test" 80-year old technology? Am I missing something here?
Putin just tested a missile launcher. He wants to flex. That's it. Ego.
Desperate attempts to sound like a strongman?
