I mean, gross and all that, but its not like we havent heard this North Korea-style fluffing from all of Trumps minions, so normally I wouldnt 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 Huckabees imaginary sky daddy. Like Han Solo, Ive got a bad feeling about this

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.
