    I think Trump will seriously threaten with nukes but he won’t actually use them because Russia will MAD back Iran.

    Otherwise they would genuinely consider using tactical nukes for instant victory.

      I hope you are right. And it makes sense.

      On the other hand, that orange child rapist has the temperament of an insane toddler, and wants to be remembered. At the moment he’s remembered mostly for being in cahoots with Epstein and for protecting paedos etc etc, so what better way to change that than by using a nuke on Iran…

      I’m pretty confident Russia isn’t going to launch nukes on the US if the US uses them on Iran, unless I misunderstood what you said.

        Maybe not on the US but the bases it has surrounding Iran and definitely would use them in Ukraine.
