Can it be accomplished with fool hardiness or just because ONE man wants it? Absolutely not. Life is a spiritual war and no matter where we lay our head, we live in a warzone. There will be casualties. You do get to choose your side. I chose the Bright Side where my God fights for me. Others chose the Dark Side and fight for an entity that views them with disdain and discards them. |

All he has to do is push the red button, and it's all over. It doesn't matter where he's at, anywhere in the world, he still has the ability. Can you imagine Hillary with this? OMG, reaching into her purse for another OxyContin, and she accidentally hits the red button.... BOOM! |
Anonymous Coward User ID: 929829 United States 10/28/2016 12:11 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | I Have a question that really concerns me alot ... Quoting: Anonymous Coward 73242855 I am from Europe and we read alot in the press and in the news media that trump will push the nuclear button and start a war and that he is crazy and so on .. Well my question is, in every media you read they say that it is easy for the president to push a button and it can start a world war within 5 minutes. Is that really possible and that easy for a president to do? i personally don't think it is that easy and there must be more people who actually accept the launch of a nuclear warhead, but on the other side it must be a fast decision too and there cannot be too much time for a launch to wait for an enemy launch ... how you see this? He's a tool like all the rest. Who knows. |

It's a big red button that says "push me" and it doesn't even have a cover on it, so if the President sits on his desk and accidently sits on the button a nuclear war will start. |
Anonymous Coward User ID: 72635588 United States 10/28/2016 12:13 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | No the POTUS cannot just launch on a whim. There are various classified circumstances that have to be met and other people agree have been met before the damn football would be active. It is there so that when those conditions and other people responsible have agreed, then he can make the final decision to use or not use. Learn about what we know or have surmised about the failsafe system. It can be an eye opener of how much is involved. |

User ID: 72994177 United States 10/28/2016 12:32 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | There are many steps to launching nukes. There is no button but there is a football that another ss carries and has to be activated to get codes to launch the nukes. Quoting: Starstorm THIS Then where ever the nuke is to be launched from, it takes two people to do it, and they must both agree that the order is valid. Known as the two-man rule.

The president can wake up at 2am, pick up the phone and cause to be launched EVERY nuclear missile the USA has in just a few minutes without asking ANYONE if its a good idea. |

He is a deal maker and likes peace and civility for America. Hillary will give more nukes to Iran and let them start the war in Europe. If Hillary is President the world is doomed ! |

They are bought and paid for by HRC/Soros just like ours is. Trump is not going to start a war, he will prevent one. Russia has flat out said that if Hillary is elected there will be a confrontation. Not to say that he wouldn't let 'em fly if it were absolutely necessary, but she is obviously the more hawkish of the two and has obvious disdain for anyone (eapecially Putin) who dares to oppose their agenda. |
