Trump needs a bigly distraction. Maybe a nuke launch.

[Cyrano]

With Mueller breathing down his neck, it seems that Trump is getting even crazier. He's no doubt looking around for something wild enough to distract everyone, including Mueller. And in Trump's deranged mind, launching a nuke at North Korea might be the answer. After all, he doesn't give a crap how many deaths occur. We know that all he cares about is himself and his own well being.

So if Trump were to order a nuclear attack on North Korea, would the generals in the Pentagon obey the order? Hopefully not.

1. He'll do something

I don't know if it's a nuclear attack. But he'll do something.

2. I actually think the military would disobey the order and probably arrest him.

They know how foolish it would be and could trigger WWIII and they have zero respect for Benedict Donald.

3. People need to start understanding that Trump isn't just going to launch a nuke

Yes, he's insane. And an idiot. And a psychopath. But even he knows that launching a nuclear missile, unprovoked at North Korea, would result in immediate impeachment from both Democrats and Republicans. Seriously, he would be out of office within a few days and his legacy would be cemented as the worst president in US history.

He's dumb, but to Trump, his image is everything, and he's not going to launch a nuclear missile knowing that it would result in his immediate removal from office.

I'm sorry, but I see this thread appear two or three times a day.

4. i have no confidence it that whatsoever.

5. He's living in an alternate reality bubble

and is capable of, literally, anything.

And as for congress impeaching him? Not until he signs that insane tax bill.

6. I would say that if he were a "normal" person, but he is mentally disturbed. Apparently delusions

swirl in his head plus some say he has dementia, and additionally is narcissistic and sociopathic. So, that all said, I don't see him as a person of sound reasoning and/or fully understanding the implications of his actions, especially under severe stress. In essence, he's a loose cannon rolling around.
