They are apparently $4bn richer in 12 months since regaining power. A lot of it from weapons contracts conveniently linked to his sons.
Everything is a shakedown. |
Yep. Follow the money. They’re milking it for all it’s worth. And also questions need to be asked about who is making the anonymously large trades off the back of Trump’s statements too. It may not be a Trump family member, but someone is cashing in big time off his statements and the subsequent market volatility. It’s generating hundreds of thousands of dollars profit per week.
Corrupt as fook. |  |

Trump will want to be The Man who used the nuke. Unless he’s taken out he will do it at some point.
Typically, US presidents do nothing of note between the outcome of an election and the transition of power. That’s when I reckon he goes off the scale, compared to his Trumpian norms. |  |

I just can’t see it, there is no benefit to him personally by using a nuke and a lot to lose. As others have said he is abusing power to make him and his family very rich indeed, why put that in jeopardy. |  |

Your crediting with judgement and intelligence rather than a toddler who reacts without thought when he doesn't get his own way.
I hope you're right. |  |

Why/how does USA media cover this stuff in such low key terms?
TRUMP: "I'm gonna fuckin' blow up all the fuckers! I wanna use all the bombs before I die! Helter skelter! Helter skelter! Race war! Race war! Fuck Easter and fuck you, too!"

It not just the USA media. Headline BBC tonight was pretty much ‘Trump threatens to attack power plants in sweary rant’. Er, any chance of pointing out that would be committing a war crime lads/lasses? | |

Looking at the front pages tomorrow, the Mirror says "Unhinged", The Times and Guardian mention hell being unleashed, the Sun and Telegraph go all dewy eyed over the rescue of the pilot, and the Express doesn't mention it all.
Astonishingly, the headline that calls out him out on his language the most is the Mail!

There’s no such thing as a ‘war crime’. That concept is for the history books sadly. We are back with might is right.
Trump’s latest fruitloop rant will be superseded by another tomorrow so there’s little point in taking him at his word. Especially his empty threats.
He’ll declare victory when the domestic heat gets too much, probably in a week or two’s time, and tootle off to Cuba to steal that. |  | | |

What conventional weapons are as destructive as a thermonuclear device? Even with MIRVs no longer used by the US I don't think there is anything remotely close.
To give some idea, one US device yields 1.2 MT which is approximately 100,000 times more yield than the famous US MOAB conventional bomb.

In terms of pure explosive yield, of course you are correct*.
However, for destroying specific targets they want to hit (e.g. bridges, power stations, military/IRGC/government installations), then conventional weapons are very much more effective, easier to deliver, cheaper and come with a lot less moral baggage - not to mention many fewer collateral civilian deaths.
Obliterating cities is militarily pointless. It will not win Trump this war. All it would do is stir up a storm of international and domestic condemnation - right before the Mid Term elections.
* Tho 1.2Mt is on the large side for modern devices. A lot of them are in the 200-500Kt range nowadays. They don't need to be huge to compensate for less accurate delivery methods. |  |

That wasn't what he said though, he said conventional weapons are of the same level and that's not true.
1.2 MT is currently the US largest device, you're correct that they have smaller ones but the yield is still orders of magnitude above anything conventional.
You think Trump cares about any of those things in your second paragraph? I don't think he would use such a weapon but I also don't think he really cares about the stuff you've highlighted.

Idiots like MTG, Jones and Carlson will pretend that Trump has suddenly flipped and gone completely doolally, and that before this he was a wonderful president, the best president, a president so good you wouldn't believe. Anyone with a functioning braincell who's not a greedy or sociopathic tvvat has been screaming about his unsuitability for that job for about a decade now. Claiming madness for the orange monster just gets him off the hook for the previous horrors, at least in their minds anyway.
The lack of alarm/criticism from, amongst others but most notably the BBC, has been p1ssing me off for a long time now. And it's not just since his ridiculous lawsuit in Florida after the editing of that January 6th programme. They've been so soft on him for years now. Call him out! Again and again! | | | |

Everything is a shakedown. |
They're going to need all that money though, once they're out of office, maybe to buy a small country somewhere with a private army to protect themselves as there will be a lot of people after them.
Maybe they could disappear to somewhere like Russia, or Israel where they might be relatively safe. |  |

Fair enough. But I guess the underlying point remains in that conventional weapons can be hugely destructive without the literal and political fallout of a nuclear weapon. Even he isn’t that dopey. Or is he??? | | | |

While focussing on Trump’s idiocy and worrying about fuel prices, it is worth remembering what sort of country Iran is:

There are some very wealthy nations on his Board of Peace who I imagine would be more than happy to accommodate him in the unlikely event he would need to leave the US. |  | | |

I can't see him resorting to nuclear weapons.
In my view, there is method in his madness. | | | |

Depends if those countries still want to have a working relationship with the US though, assuming the next administration want to bring the Trumps to justice. | |
