    Couple more to add to this: first, his proposed ambassador to Israel is further to the right than the current Israeli government, having supported the settlements and wants to move the embassy to Jerusalem.

    Second, apparently diplomats are being "pressured" to move diplomatic events to Trump's hotel - the Kuwaitis normally hold an annual event at the Four Seasons, but this year members of the Trump transition team leant on them to relocate to Trump's property, presumably using access (or lack thereof if they didn't) to the President-Elect as leverage. Of course, this flows more money into Trump's coffers, showing he's not even attempting to hide his conflicts of interest.

    I've always wondered what it was like to live at the height of the nuclear armament race. Now I get to find out. It's also fun to have an impetuous twit at the helm.

    More nuclear weapons are useless unless you're willing to use them.

    And the United States is most definitely not.

    Trump is fanning nuke cards every time he brings up the topic. He and his secretary of defense, Mad Dog Mattis, are responsible for their use. The United States, not so much (except for voting the sob into office).

    from wiki

    Authorization of a nuclear or strategic attack[edit]
    Only the President can direct the use of nuclear weapons, including the Single Integrated Operational Plan (SIOP). While the President does have unilateral authority as commander-in-chief to order that nuclear weapons be used for any reason at any time, the actual procedures and technical systems in place for authorizing the execution of a launch order requires a secondary confirmation under a two-man rule, as the President's order is subject to secondary confirmation by the Secretary of Defense. If the Secretary of Defense does not concur, then the President may in his sole discretion fire the Secretary. The Secretary of Defense has legal authority to approve the order, but cannot veto it.[2][3][4]

    “Let it be an arms race … we will outmatch them at every pass and outlast them all,” Trump told MSNBC’s “Morning Joe” during an off-air conversation on Friday.

    source

    With rhetoric like this, I could learn to love the bomb.

    Either he's following Nixon's lead (madman theory), or he's mad.

    The retarded thing is you seem to think this is unusual and not what normally happens or that Hillary would have been different. Seripusly, look at Obama and Clinton and notice how they packed offices with similar special interests.

    I agree it is a bad policy but both parties dp as their S. O. P..

    I hated that B613 completely ruined "Scandal" with all the mysterious hand/more power than the President crap, but I hope to God that some form of that exists in case Trump decides to go off the rails.

    Yeah, I'd rather that Obama had changed that on his way out.

    You people seriously cannot be worried about President Trump ordering a nuclear attack.

    No, I'm more worried about him making the most powerful nation on the planet a bigger laughing stock than when you announced your belief you are a good educator.

    You have no factual basis for saying that I'm not a good educator.

    If you don't want to see it again, simply declare that no one is allowed to bring up anything about me personally in the Red Room Anna.

    Problem solved.

    You told the world about your incompetence. No one had to dig up your failures. You have no one to blame but yourself in this case.
