Huckabee, Trump's Ambassador to Israel, thinks nuclear bombs are being contemplated

Mike Huckabee, who is apparently Trump’s ambassador to Israel (somehow I’d repressed that memory?), gargled Trump’s balls so hard in a text message that Dumbfuck Hitler felt moved to share it with the world via his janky social media platform.



I mean, gross and all that, but it’s not like we haven’t heard this North Korea-style fluffing from all of Trump’s minions, so normally I wouldn’t bother sharing it. But this jumped out at me: “Truman in 1945.”

What notable thing happened that year? Oh yeah, the U.S. dropped atomic bombs on Hiroshima and Nagasaki. And Huckabee is an End Times-believing evangelical fanatic surrounded by a wide variety of zealots in a regional tinderbox where bombs are flying everywhere.

To recap, a deranged Bible-humper with a fully engorged Rapture-boner is fawning over the demented authoritarian who has the nuclear codes and urging him to listen to Huckabee’s imaginary sky daddy. Like Han Solo, I’ve got a bad feeling about this…

It's a nuke bunker buster.

They probably think that hitting the underground base will certainly release SOME radioactive material and a small nuke warhead detonating at 300' depth might actually not only destroy the facility but also actually REDUCE the amount of fallout.

Plus, Trump gets to pleasure himself over a nuke going off... the first one in anger for 80 years.
