Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff Mark Milley took steps to prevent then-President Donald Trump from misusing the country's nuclear arsenal during the last month of his presidency, according to a new book by The Washington Post's Bob Woodward and Robert Costa obtained by NBC News.
Thank goodness someone was standing guard over the nut house!
That might have been 45s plan all along to nuc the planet. That would be only thing that make America Great Again, if we are only ones left.
Problem is virtually nobody would be left. It would be a very bad plan. So, with Trump, he likely wanted to do it, thinking it was genius.
While the book does make it appear that way, the position Milley holds has no direct command authority over any combat or other command. He can try to persuade, but cannot order.
In any event, let's hope Trump never returns.
