    Definitely not, nuclear weapons are dangerous and should be banned, only the benevolent United States should have them. If you ever find yourself in the position where you are fighting against the United States you need to take a good look in the mirror and turn yourself in at the nearest world police station.

    I mean it’s just a painful reality that if you don’t have a nuke you’re at the mercy of stronger Nations. That other nations will with impunity abuse you. No one will protect you. Every country should try to make nukes. That’s a fucking terrifying Prospect but it’s still true from a geopolitical standpoint.

      Yeah, non-proliferation was backed by US security guarantees. Something successive presidents on both sides didn’t mess with. Now that we see the Americans are stupid enough to vote in a certified moron, it’s best every state gets nukes. I only hope the soft cocks running Australia see that before it’s too late.

    Abso-fucking-lutely they should…

    I don’t like the idea of a potentially world ending nuclear stand-off, but we’ve learned well enough from these past couple of years that having nukes is the only way to guarantee your country’s sovereignty against other nuclear powers.

      Friendship ended with nuclear non-proliferation. Now nuclear proliferation is my best friend.

        They could just station them in Canada like the US stations theirs in NATO countries. You know, in case Russia invades Canada cough cough.

      I genuinely think he’s backed himself into a corner with all the illegal shit he’s done, and if he’s out of power again, he’s going to prison.

      I don’t believe he wants to stay in power, I believe he feels he needs to. It’s die in office, or die in prison.

        If you actually think there is even a chance that Trump will ever go to prison then I have this very nice bride to sell you.

        But seriously how can one still believe in the American justice system?

        Or worse, flee the country and die in some slightly-less-luxurious house. The man is a narcissist, and from having a grandma that was probably NPD, they don’t give up a thing once they have it.

      Nobody with a braincell ever thought he was lying about it, and it’s sad that it needs pointing out to so many and why it’s such a bad thing.

        The guy changes sides, plans and opinions like the wind blows. One lie can be true the next day and an action can be undone a week after. This is not a question of lies or truths. This is just chaos and it is maybe worse than lies

    With our southern Nazi Russian muppets south of us?

    Abso-fuckining-lootly

    Like yesterday. Trumps a menace and hell bent on destroying the planet because he has a bruised ego and fragile emotional state.

        CANDU reactors where in part cheaper than the alternative because it didn’t need to enrich uranium for the reactors. AFAIK, Canada does not have the facilities for enrichment.
