Very disturbing. I wonder what it will take for his supporters to abandon him.

“I’ll have to be very careful here,” Scarborough said. “Several months ago, a foreign policy expert on international level went to advise Donald Trump, and three times he asked about the use of nuclear weapons. Three times he asked, at one point, if we have them, why can’t we use them? That’s one of the reasons he just doesn’t have foreign policy experts around him. Three times, in an hour briefing, why can’t we use nuclear weapons.”

Republicans just don't seem to learn from their mistakes. They have already elected a village idiot, and it was a complete disaster, now they want another round, except this one is a sociopath on top of it.

This. Pretty much verbatim to what I've been saying myself.

Every day I question the sanity of Drumpf and his supporters a little more. Not I'm questioning it a lot more.

Democrats must honestly be terrified of the man because they sure are throwing everything they can think of at Trump hoping it sticks. Russian puppet, mental illness, looking to start WW3, it's like every campaign strategy used since Goldwater is being employed all at once. I'm sure in the next few days we'll see reports that Trump hates puppies and eats his hot dogs with ketchup.

My bad...

Considering Donald Trump's flying off the handle at various tweets I have started to associate StarCraft's "Nuclear Launch Detected" sound with a Trump victory.

I heard this too on Morning Joe. Honestly I'd need context, Joe is reporting from something he heard from a guy he knows said he heard another guy say.
Similar to yesterday's Hillary is supporting ISIS thread.

You would die in a nuclear war too, not just Democrats.

Trump publically showed complete ignorance on nuclear nonproliferation and wanted to arm more countries with nukes, so this isn't fair fetched at all. Nukes are our biggest leverage and Trump is all about exerting leverage.

Obviously Trump doesn't want to be elected in November, so he keeps taking like idiot.

All he wants is to let people know him so he can advance his business X times.

Not knowing if it's true or not, the sad thing is that you could easily believe it was true coming out of his mouth. I'd like to believe on the slim chance he won that once he gave an order(s) to the military that amounted to war crimes and breaking the law, that they would be refused. There is an expectation of a degree of honor and decency in the military that I would like to believe is more pronounced in the upper echelons. So for example if he carried out his statements of torturing people or killing the families of alleged terrorists, that he would quickly find himself refused and impeached.

The man is a loon and appears to be incapable of understanding decent behaviour and the value of other people. I can't see a situation where he would not manage to pursue some sort of criminal use of military force out of his thinking might makes right and I'm always right mindset.

I could see him having naivete to not understand that using nuclear weapons is not a safe proposition just because you're not attacking another nuclear armed state. Immediately after you'll have the hackles raised of every nuclear armed nation as they realize there is a madman at the controls of the US arsenal and are forced to consider if they should wait and see or act before he goes off the deep end and decides to fire some more at them. I mean, he's that inexperienced and arrogant as evidenced by the idiocy he's spewed on foreign policy, that you could see him thinking it would be just another choice like making a dumb face, pointing at them and telling them they're fired.

DW-NOMINATE is actually used to compare congressional ideology over time so you can look at it in today's terms too. The mean republican house member's DW-NOMINATE score is somewhere around .45 or so. (on a scale of -1 to 1)

Exactly none of them are true conservatives either

Being more serious posters on this site will see that Joe is pro gun reform and old school abortion is a settled issue. He'll instantly become Elizabeth Warren. Plus he's on MSNBC's payroll!
