General Discussion

For starters, you're just playing games when you pretend that the entirety of the argument is the credibility of the hypothetical. I'm not sure why you even both with things like that; it only further damages your credibility.

But here. Give me a straight answer:

Are you as certain as you claim to be that, were Trump to order a nuclear strike on, say, Teheran that the military would not follow the order?

Obviously you can continue to spin and say, "Oh, he would never order a strike on Teheran." But you can't pretend to know that.

The guy's nuttier than squirrel shit, and pretending you can predict what he will do...well, it further damages your credibility.

Again, when a four-star general who commands an entire theater will not say that a "no quarter" order is illegal, you've got to be a real optimist to think that the military is going to be any kind of bulwark.
