Either the U S President is the Cmdr in Chief or he isn’t. Even my middle of the road relative can’t stand this woman.

She’s just trying to increase her chances of being the Dems’ nomineee by sucking up to the globalist cabal.

Quite frankly, I don’t see any diff bet Warren and/or Harris, Sanders, Booker, Klobuchar, or Gillibrand or any of the rest of them.

She knows, of course, it will go nowhere, but it is her signal to the voters that she, above all others, is the one who is the wisest, most forward thinking, most
compassionate; that she is eternally on-guard against all evil, and has the people’s welfare uppermost on her mind, the purest of minds.

The political fallout from the use of (let alone the first use) of nuclear weapons is too high.

You mean first strike use, right? The United States is already guilty of the first use of a nuclear first strike.

Interesting.

Technology was different back then. How cohesive was a widely spread out naval task force back then? Communications technology is superior now, as is detection capabity, but the idea of a task force was mutual defense around the carrier, which is compromised when spread out too far.

Would conditions be different if studied today?

"Completely idiotic and dangerous."

As well as giving aid and comfort to the enemy. But that is what Demonicrats do.

This stance alone should disqualify her from ever seeking the Whitehouse.

I for one am glad to see a least one of our elected representatives is fearlessly taking on one of the most important issues of our time. I’m really disturbed how blithefully our executive branch uses their first strike capability. Bravo.

Wasn’t it Hairy Reed that employed the nuclear option in the Senate?

If you are still alive to have to use them second, you will be very remorseful that you didn’t use them first.

This sums it up perfectly!

To be sure, he’ll be the first to sit down in the middle of the other country’s target.

Why not tie both hands behind our backs - and chain a cinder block to one ankle while we’re at it....

Was this something we had to worry about?

Glad she has her priorities straight. Good Grief!

China has 1.4 billion people.
The US has 328 thousand.

Taking any weapons off the table when you’re that out numbered is stupid.

Letting China become the manufacturer of all things tech is stupid too.
