Because trump didn't want his Air Force to shoot down one of Putin's planes in Syria when Putin's dick is up his asss

Well, I just looked it up and it seems there is in fact one potential spanner in the works keeping Trump from unilaterally launching a nuclear strike: The Pentagon.
I looked up an article on the proper legal procedure for a nuclear strike, and here's the crucial step that keeps the president from nuclear armageddon:
Quote:Before initiating military action, the president convenes a conference with military and civilian advisers in Washington and around the world to talk through options. In the White House, the call takes place in the Situation Room. If traveling, the president is patched in on a secure line. A key participant in the meeting: the Pentagon’s deputy director of operations, an officer in charge of the National Military Command Center, also known as the “war room.” This around-the-clock operations center is responsible for preparing and ultimately transmitting a launch order from the president. The head of all U.S. strategic nuclear forces at Strategic Command in Omaha would probably also be asked for a briefing on strike options.
This can take as long as the President wants, but if the missiles are already in the air, the process can take as few as 30 seconds. Of course, it seems if anyone stands in the way of nuclear war with Trump, it's the NMCC's Deputy Director of Operations, and The head of Strategic Command. I can't be sure of the NMCC guy's name, but I think it's Cpt. Alvin Holsey (not sure on it), and I can't find any information about his stance on the issue. It seems John Hyten, the head of Strategic Command, is convinced that any decent solution to the issue requires help from China. So there's still a little hope, even if it's not that much.

I mean, we'd finally get a unified Korea, i guess.
All the baiting is coming from Kim, he's boasting his nuke missiles can now hit the US homeland.
He better not mess with Don..

Listen you narcissistic jackass, nukes are not a fucking game you idiot. You have more to fear from idiot Covfefe than you do Un. That asshole is no Truman, no JFK and no Reagan. He is a inept clown who thinks the world is his personal episode of WWE Smackdown. Problem is this is the real world and not a fucking TV SHOW.
FYI I live on this planet too, so fuck you and fuck your bullshit Dirty Harry garbage.
You want the opinion of INTEL experts here are 50 former REPUBLICAN INTEL officials.......

The US has a selection of bunker-busting and ground-penetrating bombs and we can be pretty sure US satellites have pinpointed the locations of the ICBM launch sites.
Like I said earlier, they're Kim's "teeth", so he'd have no bite if they were taken out, no need for a fullscale ground war..

Only Republican ass licking idiots can mess with such a hopeless egotistical moron as don and still come out second best.
Kim is no Republican, no ass licker, and no idiot.
Don is doomed.
Let's hope not too many Americans who didn't vote for him need to die on account of the accidental circumstances of being citizen of a country stupid enough to have elected him.

Yeah, Don could simply send in a sniper to get him, no need for a massive ground war..
It's not a new idea anyway-

Not sure I understand you mate, I heard Don say on TV a while back- "My first duty as President is to protect the American people".
It's simple self-defence..

FUCK YOU ASSHOLE!
There is a little bit more to global politics than "Just do it" and "shoot first".
Listen you dumbfuck, you don't simply break something up. Long term thinking matters not "shoot first".
We have already AND REPEATEDLY told you why neither using nukes or just a conventional war, or even just air strikes WILL NOT WORK.
1. CHINA DOES NOT WANT A REFUGEE PROBLEM
2. CHINA DOES NOT WANT A UNITED WESTERN STYLE GOV NEXT TO IT'S BORDER.
3. You create a power void in NK China will attempt to fill it, BOOM, now America is at war with CHINA.
Point being you stupid fuck, IT ISN'T THAT SIMPLE!
And then there is the risk of WW3, with nukes, not NKs nukes but CHINA AND RUSSIA, YOU STUPID FUCK.
Truman knew the risk, JFK knew the risk, Reagan knew the risk. You and your inept orange asshat Batman villain don't seem to understand that is what is at stake.
This is not your fucking planet alone you stupid fuck, 7 billion humans will be greatly affected by either a nuclear war or even just a ground war.
WW2 cost 50 million lives worldwide. WW3 if started will make that look like a domestic homicide.
You may want to treat human lives as simply a joke, but I don't.
