>Since 1993, the Department of Energy has had to be ready to conduct a nuclear test within two to three years if ordered by the President. Late last year, the Trump Administration ordered the department to be ready, for the first time, to conduct a short-notice nuclear test in as little as six months.
So we didn't even have the capabilities to TEST a nuke for 2-3 years?
Jack Lopez
What's the problem? It sends a much needed message after king nig went around bowing to every shithole president like they mattered.
Noah Butler
what message?
Matthew Jones
What's wrong with a test, faggot?
Asher Ramirez
Hopefully that they still work. The damn things are probably 30-50 years old at this point.
Benjamin Nguyen
We've done like 800+ nuclear tests in the past, one more won't hurt anything.
Alexander Young
The idea that Trump is why is ridiculous. For 20+ years, world governments have been puruing unsustainable policies that have led us to this point. Russia and China have been growing unchecked, with views that are incompatible with the west. MAD was the single reason global war never broke out in 60s. If our nuclear capabilities aren't at the ready, what is there to deter either Russia or China, especially if they can deflect blame to either Iran or North Korea? This problem has only been compunded by the DNC response to Trump's victory. They are inyentionally dismantling our ability to engage in effective diplomacy. Peace is only guaranteed if the cost of conflict surpasses all potential gains. How can Trump be blamed for the corruption of man?
Justin Williams
Literally just launch a Minuteman III and have it explode in the middle of the Pacific.

Is Time Magazine garbage or fake news these days? I used to read Time and NatGeo a lot while in high school but that was a while ago and we all know National Geographic is shit now.
Jaxson Hernandez
Nukes are cool. Fuck you, you limp-wristed cunt.
Hunter Reyes
>They are inyentionally dismantling our ability to engage in effective diplomacy
I'm sure Trump's constant shitposting on twitter has nothing to do with it...
Charles Hernandez
This. To be fair, Hillary probably would have done this too in the cursed timeline. MAD relies on... well, Mutually Assured Destruction.
Jordan Gonzalez
That America won't be ashamed of the military might that made it a world super power. Although the UK and the rest of Europe like to slam their dicks in the door jamb of the cuck sheds any time someone brings up the British Empire; we won't follow suit.
>Although the UK and the rest of Europe like to slam their dicks in the door jamb of the cuck sheds
What?
Nolan Reyes
>UHD 4k nuke vids online
Sounds neat.
Camden James
We'll finally see a nuke in 4k and modern slowmo.
Jason Adams
If you think nukes exist you're fucking retarded.

Jordan Jackson
Dont see a problem when every other nuclear capable asian country is testing theirs
Liam Harris
cannot. fucking. wait.
Oliver Jackson
Can you not read bong, have things devolved so much there? I'll pray for you m8
Hunter Cook
fucking hyped
Ian Rodriguez
>Dont see a problem You should. This means you're no longer the world hegemon, you''re being challenged.
Henry Wright
>President Trump has not ordered such a test, but even the consideration of a show of force–by the nation that announced the atomic age by dropping nuclear weapons on Japanese cities in August 1945–marks a provocative shift from the sober, almost mournful restraint that has characterized the U.S. posture toward the weapons for decades. >President Trump has not ordered such a test >not
Time magazine was established as a pure Social Engineering operation by the Rockefellers in the 50s. As WASP power gradually went into Jew hands it became even more virulent.
Landon Moore
>you’re being challenged And we’re answering it.
Jayden Carter
im all for it. it will redpill people to be reminded of the barbarism nation states are capable of. we live in such civilized times that people have forgotten
John Phillips
You are retarded. The US has done EVERYTHING to destroy MAD . They always wanted to nuke others and have no response. Russia told them to fuck off
Yeah, but not being unchallenged is a sign of decline. Drop the cocky American act for a second and think about what this actually means for your country.
Kevin Carter
Maybe you'd have a point if NK wasn't at its diplomatic weakest in decades.
Leo Lewis
>being challenged is a sign of decline WTF do you think ppl voted for Trump? We've been challenged by China and Russia since the '90s. Are you suggesting that not following Europe into obscurity is somehow worse for our economic power?
Christian Richardson
>following Europe into obscurity Dude Europe's decline is entirely your country's fault.
Whats the point in having nukes if you can't test to make sure they work
Mason Hughes
try to defend not doing it
William Edwards
i think it means we finally have someone in charge that understands the world and cares about us
Andrew Reed
>They are inyentionally dismantling our ability to engage in effective diplomacy
So the Dems are responsible for gutting the state department and leaving all the vacancies open?
Luke Kelly
Old man just wants to see cool explosions. If I was him I would be sulling tickets and sunglasses like with eclipse.
>Be trump >Declare nuclear tests >Sell tickets to go see it >Sell glasses >Make millions in profits >Spend those on poor sick kids >Be a literal saint while blasting nuclear fireworks >win 2020
Aiden Cooper
>bunch of countries exponentially growing >planet is staying the same size >no conflict ever happens yea...no..... that doesnt make any fucking sense........lol
William Thompson
yes 100% they wont give security clearance or approval to anyone he likes
Carter Foster
>Defend this So are you saying it's bad that we want to be prepared to defend ourselves? I'm not following.
Daniel Campbell
Why don't he just call in military personel. They can't deny them security clearance or approval. Captains, majors, colonels, military advocates and so on. Military administrators.
Wyatt Evans
This type of shit is the reason why I won't be sad when your country dies within the next decade.
Jack Murphy
>European leaders literally had conferences on how to reduce their empires and how best to reduce their power >IT'S ALL AMERICA'S FAULT, FUCKING MARXISTS! cool cool cool
Jordan Gray
So happy the big bombs are back. GOAT apocalypse scenario.
Jayden Hughes
>gutting the state department >implying that those positions were necessary >implying they had nothing to do with our lack of military preparedness and poor diplomacy Why do you think other people value the same things you do? Why do you think people who voted for the guy campaigning to fire bureaucrats would be disappointed when he does exactly that?
Kayden Thompson
You are retarded. In the late 40s America had hundreds of nukes and Russia had zero. So why didn't they blow up every city in Russia?
