Can Trump launch our missiles all by himself WITHOUT approval from ANYONE?
It's been debated before, but hasn't been settled.. I say President Trump can nuke ANYONE, ANY time he wants to, for ANY reason he wants to, and NOBODY can stop him.
The reasoning behind that authority stems from the BELIEF that the president would ONLY fire our missiles IF somebody else fired theirs first. Should that happen, the president has only 9 minutes to shoot. Clearly, there's NO time to consult with ANYONE.
Others say, that Trump NEEDS the Secretary of Defense to sign off BEFORE he fires.. Of course, we'll be nuclear toast before that can happen..
The combination of Trump and nukes is wrong, dangerous, and scary as hell. It needs to be dismantled.. Oh, it's the RIGHT policy - just the WRONG president..

Yes he really can. That's the frightening thing about it. http://www.businessinsider.com/ They are maybe looking to change that but for now he has that ability. Side: Yes, he CAN
He can. But I think the saving grace is he would probably only do that against a smaller enemy... a) Russia is usually his buddy b) China has some spats but never seems to rise to the level of talk of war c) N Korea is indeed possible if not probable, but a direct conflict with them may not necessarily draw in Russia or China. Their involvement would depend more on what collateral damage comes their way and who causes it. If N Korea inflicts it then we probably all survive, but if the US did it watch out. d) And although he has spats with many other countries over many other things I doubt he is going to launch against a NATO ally for example. Side: Yes, he CAN
N Korea is indeed possible if not probable Hello G: Very probable, in my view.. But, I think it will ignite WW III.. If Trump attacks North Korea, Kim will obliterate Soul. 30,000 or so Americans will die. That'll prompt Trump to obliterate North Korea, and we're off to the races.. excon Side: Yes, he CAN

It seems you would have been freightened by the last President who bombed indiscriminantly, more than "W", Clinton, Bush I, and Reagan all combined, and then handed Iran the keys to the nukes when sanctions were crippling them, but of course you weren't. A leftist psychopath doesn't bother you. That's a clear sign that your outrage over theoretical missile launches that haven't and aren't happening is? Completely fake. Side: Yes, he CAN
