Trump Tweets, Liberals Go Nuclear (https://www.commentarymagazine.com/politics-ideas/trump-tweets-liberals-go-nuclear-weapons/)


Donald Trump has done it again. The president-elect has taken to his Twitter account to articulate a shift in American national-security policy with grave geopolitical implications that cannot be understated. At least, that’s what the left would have you believe. This increasingly rote response represents another chapter in the voluminous annals of liberal overreaction to the president-elect’s social-media musings.

“The United States must greatly strengthen and expand its nuclear capability until such time as the world comes to its senses regarding nukes,” wrote President-elect Trump on Thursday. When it comes to Trump and Twitter, the left is already on edge. Add nuclear weapons to the mix, and you have a recipe for a stage-four meltdown.

Who knows what inspired the tweet or what Trump precisely meant by it? This assertion might have been the result of a meeting Trump took with Pentagon officials on Wednesday, including the Deputy Chief of Staff for Strategic Deterrence and Nuclear Integration. Or it may have been Trump’s response to having been briefed on the results of Russian President Vladimir Putin’s year-end meeting with defense chiefs in which the Russian autocrat pledged a nuclear-modernization push in 2017.

Trump was clearly avoiding specificity and to identify a detailed policy proposal in this tweet requires some divination on the part of individual observers. That didn’t stop the left from both dissecting this tweet and coming to one preordained conclusion: “We’re all going to die.”...

So the ones he fired off to China about the drone, Israel (at Netty's urging) and about greatly strengthening and expanding our nuke capability didn't involve foreign policy?

Does anyone else honestly believe that past policy of US and Russia REDUCING the number of nukes we has "failed".

I mean seriously, do you really want to start another arms race :confused:

The US alone already has 5,000 of the things .. or enough to destroy the planet many times over.

I don't make this stuff up folks - it flies out of Newt and his pal Trumpf's mouths at random.

Gingrich, an informal Trump adviser, told “Fox News Sunday” host Chris Wallace that the longstanding U.S. policy of reducing the number of its nuclear weapons has “failed.” He claimed that it has enabled former Cold War (http://www.history.com/topics/cold-war/cold-war-history) foes China (http://www.history.com/this-day-in-history/china-joins-a-bomb-club), North Korea (https://web.archive.org/web/20130425162315/http://americansecurityproject.org/ASP Reports/Ref 0072 - North Korea’s Nuclear Program .pdf) and Russia (http://www.icanw.org/the-facts/the-nuclear-age/) to rebuild or expand their capacities.

People who say mean things about him
The dishonest media
The weight of former beauty contestants
The ugliness of Arianna Huffington
Firing Obama for high gas prices (really)
Wind turbines have killed all the birds
Obama playing basketball is why our country is in trouble
The Chinese created the global warming hoax
Domestic policy
