I don't believe claims without evidence. That's my creed as an Atheist. Joe Scarbourgo sort of stammering something isn't evidence. Nobody would believe it if it the shoe was on the other foot, and Bill O'Reilly said it with no source about Hillary. You can't suspend your rationality just because you don't like someone.

Considering the personality involved, he lays himself open to exaggerated claims. He has, after all, made too many himself to retain much credibility. When a dumbass runs his mouth for months on end, I'm not going to volunteer for shovel-crew duty at the elephant parade -- he can pick up his own mess, and lose  votes in the process.

My creed, as a rationalist, is that if it walks like a dumbfuck and talks like a dumbfuck, it's probably a dumbfuck. Occam's Razor and all that, you know? He hasn't once shown me that he possesses the nuance of mind to grasp not only nuclear issues -- which even Bush the Idiot understood wasn't an option. Trump has, however, talked about nukimg ISIS in Syria, which might appeal to the simple-minded but takes no measure of geopoliticism.

I don't know if I believe the claim in question or not, but it is believable, and he's made his own bed in that regard, running his mouth the way he does. Even if he weren't an extremist -- and I think he is one -- but even if he weren't, his stupidity in running his campaign this way should disqualify him. He can't run a staff of fifty people and he wants me to think he can run the country?

lol, troll moar, Donny boy.

There is no evidence for the claim. You are basically saying that it's credible because you don't like Trump or it seems like something that he would say. That's just not the way I look at evidence, regardless of the fact I don't like Trump either. An unnamed source months later? Why is this only brought up after the Clinton campaign makes nuclear weapons an issue? Nobody should take that seriously.
