    Re: Campaign 2016 Part XVI: KICK THE BABY!

    As President would I ever use nukes?
    Dang right ... in response, response, to an attack against the US with a WMD.

    Unfortunately, I don't see Trump seeing that very fine but very significant criteria.

      As President I would never use nukes under any circumstances -- even in response to a nuclear attack by a state actor*. But I would not advertise the fact.

      (* at the point at which nukes are being exchanged, states, regimes, governments and economic/political systems no longer have any importance. At that point we are looking at the continued existence of life in the only environment it has ever been observed to occupy. The priority becomes: survival of maximum number of human beings. The timeframe for eventually righting wrongs jumps to centuries. )

        He's thinking of all the attention he would get with his finger on the button. The ultimate rush for him.

          Alternatively, I'd let it be well known: WMD me? WMD you. Except my math includes a minimum 10x response factor.

                  Example of a Trump speech from swing county Loudoun, VA. Pretty humorous.

                    To paraphrase Seth MacFarlane at Trump's roast: Every time he's having sex with a super model he closes his eyes and daydreams about that button.

                              I'd argue that if this is the assumption then you should have nuked them before any attack, just because they had nukes in the first place, to avoid the first attack.

                              There is a flaw in my strategy, though. Let's say country A has one nuke and uses it on Biloxi because have you been there? By not retaliating country B with 1000 nukes might decide "might as well hit New York."

                              But at the end of the day, if I'm president and Putin sends 1000 nukes to wipe out North America, I have to take the hit. The 1000 nuke retaliation won't bring back North America and might end all life on the planet.

                              Countries and philosophies are small potatoes compared to the species. Literally anything is preferable to throwing the off switch.

                                But both parties would say that so it would be a wash at best. And it wouldn't be a wash, because I would think there must be some sort of Kevin Bacon connections between Hillary and the people at DOS who negotiated the Iran deal (WSJ has to think it to, or they wouldn't be flacking it so hard.)
