We already know how much he despises liberal cities.
He knows he's going to prison if he loses the election. At that point, he has nothing left to lose. He would order a nuclear strike out of spite.
Crazy, you say? The military will never go along with it? Former Secretary of Defense William Perry begs to differ.
In fact, from that AMA, it is described how launch officers are conditioned, daily, to type in a new code. That code (so far!) doesn't have any effect, but the launch officer doesn't know if the code will actually launch a nuke or not. So the person actually "pushing the button" will not hesitate, as they have not hesitated to type in the code since they day they started the job.
And even if STRATCOM refuses the order, what is stopping Trump from firing people until he finds someone to carry it out?
Please convince me I'm wrong. I know this sounds insane, but read what William Perry said yesterday about this.
