Been saying this since his first term: he has been looking for an excuse to let a nuke off the chain.
He’s threatened it multiple times, and provoked situations that could have led to using one other times.
Only ONE country and president has ever used a nuclear weapon against actual human targets, and he wants to be seen as a big man by being the second. He has absolutely no idea what that means.
He wanted to use them on those illegal Iran strikes, and thankfully the military shut that down. The only thing between DONALD TRUMP, a failed businessman and reality TV persona launching another nuclear attack on this planet, and that not happening is just a few people.
Sit with that for a few minutes.
Donald wanted to nuke a hurricane.
The second question here points to a response by National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration and then notes:
It makes me happy that an arm of the US government has, in some official capacity, issued an opinion on the subject of firing nuclear missiles into hurricanes.
Aged like milk.
Yuuuuuup
He is so immature that this might just be petty revenge for not getting nobel peace prize. Yea…
Sit with that for a few minutes.
Been sitting with that for years. It’s pretty awful for the soul.

It’s potentially a hundred million or so people, but they’ve decided that “peaceful protest” is sufficient
He really wants to use nuclear weapons.
When asked recently if he would invoke the Insurrection Act, Trump repeatedly emphasized that he was allowed to do it. And I’ve noticed several other times when he used the same excuse.
I’ve seen a lot of psychopaths in real life and in the news who had the same perspective. You’ll see it in a couple of days, actually, as it happens every year probably in every city that people will leave a bowl of candy out for Halloween, and somebody will take all of the candy out of the bowl, and if confronted, they’ll just say that it’s not illegal. Or for the news example, you’ll see the guy who killed an intruder, but if you listen to the way he talks about it, it seemed less like self-defense and more like he’d always wanted to kill somebody and managed to find a way to do it “legally”.
Trump is almost certainly a psychopath. He doesn’t have a conscience, and so it is natural for him to think that he should be allowed to do whatever he wants, as long as he doesn’t suffer any consequences. He wants to kill people with nuclear weapons, and so he’ll likely figure out a way to start a war just so that he can legally do so. And if that doesn’t work, then he’ll settle for this kind of shit. Just like a little shitstain future serial killer child who starts fires to see what he can get away with.
He’s so transparent. It’s still difficult for me to fathom that even a single other person, outside of his family and inner circle, voted for Trump in the last election.
I remember reading after Trump’s first term about how Bill Barr would have to dangle death row inmates he could put to death in front of him like dangling keys in front of a baby to keep Trump focused, listening, and on task.
You’re absolutely correct, he’s absolutely obsessed with harming others.
There are lots of psychopaths in a population of 350 million who can entirely relate to and feel excited by having one of their own as a leader.
I’d have to go back and look at what it means to be a psychopath, but I think there’s no reason that a psychopath would specifically feel an affinity towards other psychopaths. If anything, they probably feel competition towards other psychopaths. There are exceptions to everything, but you know for example, most serial killers work alone.

Because North Korea did it and anything a dictator does he wants to do to.
He desperately wants to say “We have the greatest nuclear tests, people come to me with tears in their eyes and thank me for all the nuclear tests!”
“You are, without doubt, the worst President I’ve ever heard of.”
…
“But you HAVE heard of me!”
He is going to try nuking a hurricane again.
The government is shut down and the Epstein files are secure. Looks like he is winning to me. I can only hope this all spectacularly backfires.
I swear, they think the same shit that worked 80 years ago, in regards to show of force, is just bang up to stuff in the modern age.
That’s not the only point he is confused about, actually. And not only about the “why”.
I know why…
The censoring just rage bait, aye?
The pathetic excuse for a president is confused.
FTFY
Real headline is “Trump is confused”, although it not a news, just slow news day filler
Because him, or someone in his cabinet, watched “A House of Dynamite” and it made them all horny for nuclear war.
Politics are overrun by aging rich pensioners.
He is a man with penis envy, that’s why. Putin, another man with penis envy, tested a nuclear torpedo and Taco felt even more emasculated.
Nowadays, you can open a dictionary on a random page and put your finger on any word on that page. Now take the headline “Trump is very confused about X” and substitute the X with the chosen word.
You’ll probably find loads of sources to support that headline.
