Clearly you don’t understand US military doctrine in these sorts of situations

I sure do, I just don't believe that any President who could be elected by this degenerated electorate would ever give the order to do what you suggest.

In late September and early October 2001, we took out a bunch of klystrons for testing to make sure they still worked. That was the best news I ever heard.

When we did not nuke Tora Bora, I knew it was a fantasy.

Our nukes will never be used.

If the ChiComs sunk a carrier? Our nukes would be flying within minutes, and in overwhelming strength. You may not believe it but it doesn’t matter two bits who is in power at any given time. You sink a US nuclear naval asset and you might as well has nuked a major US city—from the perspective of retaliation they are identical.
