“So if we don’t want the USA annihilated”
Ludicrous.
Do your basic research on the balance of nuclear weapons in the world. That way you won’t be spouting off with such nonsense.
Trump takes out North Korea missiles with conventional bombing.
So this is world war 3 as this article shows China will go to war against the USS.This is world thermonuclear war and we'll find out what China really has . And if you think Russia won't get involved your insane.
So yes the there is a very likely possibility the USA gets annihilated. You say China has “only” 300 nukes. Yeah that's what they say of course they'd never lie and like 300
is not enough to wipe the USA.
Get a clue.
Either strike now or get nuked later . It's really that simple,
