US President Donald Trump on Friday announced that he had ordered two nuclear submarines to deploy near Russia, responding to what he called “foolish and inflammatory” threats from former Russian president Dmitry Medvedev.
JFC. The President of the United States has publicly announced where he’s moved the most powerful weapon platforms in all human history, whose whole raison d’etre is to be fucking covert, utterly hidden. Just so he could flex.
Of all the crazy shit the man has done, this one rustles my jimmies.
I’m sorry, but this is the one?
The man is still an idiot but saying we have 2 nearby is useless information considering how covert they are and how much space they could be in. Foreign Nuclear subs have literally crashed into each other because they are so sneaky they couldn’t hear each other until they literally hit and “nearby” can include an area that is millions of square miles.
To be fair on that, there’s no point in a doomsday device if nobody knows you have one. Unless he gave away a specific location…
