Donald Trump suggested dropping nuclear bombs inside hurricanes to stop them reaching land.

I kid you not.

While being briefed on the threat of hurricanes, Mr Trump reportedly asked the group of national security officials if a nuke could be dropped “inside the eye” to disrupt a hurricane as it formed off the east coast of Africa.

Two posts and no mention of child rape.

Well done, you.

Nuclear weapons and hurricanes don't mix, NOAA advises.


Using nuclear weapons to destroy hurricanes is not a good idea, a US scientific agency has said, following reports that President Donald Trump wanted to explore the option.

The Axios news website said Mr Trump had asked several national security officials about the possibility.

The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) said the results would be "devastating".

Hurricanes typically affect the US east coast, often causing serious damage.

It's not the first time the idea has been considered.

Hurricanes are far more powerful than any atomic bomb.
All it would do is spread killer radiation everywhere.
Trump needs to have his head read.

Yeah.

I'm not really surprised by anything he does or says anymore.

I actually feel a little bit sorry for the guy.

He has a serious mental illness, and he's not getting any help.

More than 60,000 mental health professionals have signed a petition, which states:

“We, the undersigned mental health professionals, believe in our professional judgment that Donald Trump manifests a serious mental illness that renders him psychologically incapable of competently discharging the duties of President of the United States.

"And we respectfully request he be removed from office, according to article 4 of the 25th amendment to the Constitution, which states that the president will be replaced if he is ‘unable to discharge the powers and duties of his office.”

It shouldn't.

He's a very unstable person, with serious mental health issues.

What does it say about his supporters though?   :-/

Trump is an alleged child rapist, with serious mental health issues.

I pray that he gets help before it's too late.

Don't US presidents ever learn that when you make threats you only encourage pre emtive strikes.  ;D


Quote:

Hurricane Dorian reached Category 3 intensity Friday and forecasters said it will only become stronger before it strikes the Florida coast next week. More than 20 million Americans could feel the storm's impact. Florida's east coast is bracing for what could be its most powerful storm in 27 years. It is expected to make landfall late Monday or early Tuesday. Georgia and North and South Carolina are also on high alert. As of 11 p.m. EDT on Friday, Dorian's center was some 375 miles east of the northwestern Bahamas and about 545 miles east of West Palm Beach, Florida, the hurricane center said. Dorian was moving at 10 mph and had maximum sustained winds of 140 mph. https://www.cbsnews.com/live-news/hurricane-dorian-updates-category-3-florida-latest-track-path-models-forecast-today-2019-08-30/

It is a stupid idea that has been around for about 70 years apparently.

"The truth, though, is that Donald Trump’s apparent brainstorm—as terrible an idea as it is—actually has a long history. Seventy years ago, it was at the forefront of American scientific thought."

As long as they don't start about it being caused or made worse by climate change. ;)

Although I rather think that will be in the pipeline. ;)

Well no one else has mentioned climate change in this thread so I don't know why you felt the need to.
Unless it was some half arsed attempt at diversion from the stupidity of Donald Trump

And of course you checked the web to make sure no one else was that stupid?

And of course I did say "It is a stupid idea that has been around for about 70 years apparently."


But it went right over your head. Some "half arsed attempt at diversion from the stupidity of Donald Trump". So it was stupid then and somehow morphed into a "but it is not stupid now"? ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D
