unless the 2nd man (ie: secretary of defense) is a Trump puppet, like the attorney general (William Barr).The two man rule prevents that.
The two man rule appears to only apply below the president, at the actual launch level. Under current law, the president has sole authority to authorize their use.The two man rule prevents that.
And which targets would he attack anyway?
Serious Question: If we nuke a desert country full of brown people, what would the rest of the world do?
ahh.. it would continue as a conventional war since desert brown people don't have nukes.I imagine this would start WW3.
Trump can't launch nukes on his own... And which targets would he attack anyway?
my goodness you people are really derangedScorched earth
And what happens if a sitting President starts becoming paranoid or begins to hear voices telling to nuke a few countries here and there? You know some of guys do get petty old holding the Office.He can definitely launch nukes on his own. Its set up to happen in 30 seconds from the president's command. the thinking was during the cold war that you would have no time to launch them if you had to run it through a chain of command. Of course they never thought a guy like trump would become president in the 50's/.

I dunno... Stephen Colbert from Monsters vs Aliens is President, so anything is possible...my goodness you people are really deranged
I dont think that flies under the new rules...my goodness you people are really deranged
Well, then you should have a 25th Amendment sort of situation where the president is removed by his cabinet and VP - likely, something that will never pass. Reagan was losing it towards the end of his presidency, but nothing happened there. Now we have the racist, drunk uncle president, and people think he's the smartest guy in the room and rush to defend him from obvious criminal activity...And what happens if a sitting President starts becoming paranoid or begins to hear voices telling to nuke a few countries here and there?

Having the authority to authorize is a huge step from actually launching...or are you that dense???The two man rule appears to only apply below the president, at the actual launch level. Under current law, the president has sole authority to authorize their use.
Holy smokes. TDS is reaching new heights. Progressheviks are losing their minds because Trump dare stand up to Iran, China, Russia, and North Korea.Scorched earth
This not called standing up to anybody! This is called shooting from the hip and improvising as you go!!Holy smokes. TDS is reaching new heights. Progressheviks are losing their minds because Trump dare stand up to Iran, China, Russia, and North Korea.
