1. Uh oh. nt

[brush]

6. Please, God, just let this be him evening scores for some imagined...

slight and not a mad man's prep for war because we kicked his ass to the curb.

[Blue_playwright]

2. That's a bit frightening...

[AlexSFCA]

3. so it's either nuclear war or he is 'reelected'?

is he provoking nuclear attack so he can declare a war and suspend everything?

[Hermit-The-Prog]

4. Putin squeezing his puppet or is Cowardly Don late on paying his vig?

[unblock]

5. Looking for some serious grifts on the way out the door....

He'll sell off government assets to the highest bidder who will pay off his debts.

[soothsayer]

7. What's the angle here?

[Blue Owl]

8. Was Lisa the one who wouldn't let him nuke the hurricane?

[whttevrr]

22. Fuck... That could be it.

[Maraya1969]

9. Something extreme is going to have to happen to get ahold of this crazy man

Maybe Biden can talk to people in the administration to try and get them to do a 25th amendment. But then I don't think any of them have the guts to do that.

We have entered a very dangerous time in our country now.

[Hekate]

10. What is he planning? What fresh hell is this?

[canetoad]

11. Can't quite tie it together in my own mind

But I'm thinking:

-Saudi Arabia
-Money
-Trump's future

[tinrobot]

12. He's handing out nukes to the highest bidder?

[TheRealNorth]

18. This was my first thought.

[wnylib]

28. Like maybe to someone who might

use them against the US?

Vengeance, profit, or both?

[C Moon]

29. and only against blue states.

[questionseverything]

13. Terrifying

[C_U_L8R]

14. Mad dreams of nuking the vote counting?

[Kablooie]

15. He may be planning to cut off power and gas to states that voted against him.

It's going to get pretty rough, just like we expected.

[NBachers]

19. Putin likes to cut off the gas pipeline through Ukraine to Europe in the winter.

35. Good to know!

I just hope if he decides to start a war, the pentagon will stop the soldiers from following him down that road.

[Miguelito Loveless]

17. I've said it before

Trump will burn down the government with mass firings, selling every secret we have, then set of a nuke just to say he did. His target will be Iran.

[Jspur]

20. I have felt for a while that this man could create nuclear armageddon if he lost

considering he wouldn't have much to live for and is so petty that he would like to bring the rest of the world down with him. I don't know how the nuclear codes work but if this guy can just set off nuclear missiles by just his own authorization then we need to remove him immediately. This has now become a national security matter and not a partisan matter.

[Doodley]

23. Agreed. But who is going to do it? There's is nobody.

[MontanaMama]

21. I can't imagine what Jared has been doing

with the Presidential Daily Briefings for the last 4 years. He doesn’t have a proper security clearance and he takes the briefings for MF45. Has he been selling or trading them? Who would have stopped him? Our enemies probably know all of our secrets and now that they’ve lost the election it is time to squeeze every dine they can out of what’s left.

[OneBro]

24. He's about to give something to Putin . . .

. . . to negate his debts (and get safe passage to Russia).

[BComplex]

36. That's what I think. He's got to pay putin back for that $400 billion somehow.

[OMGWTF]

25. OMG! WTF?

[Grokenstein]

26. Dear Secret Service: You work for the United States, not the President.

Defend it against all enemies, foreign AND domestic.

[onetexan]

27. Time for the 25th! This is not a well man. He is a clear & imminent danger to the US.

Military leaders, please take the nuke football away from this crazed man before he causes a crisis of gigantic proportions.

[wnylib]

30. Oh it's long past time for the 25th.

But the people who would be responsible for doing it, e.g. the cabinet members, have already shown that they will do nothing to stop him.

Maybe some Secret Service agents will step forward to act.

[Grasswire2]

32. not likely to happen. Pence is gutless. nt

[vercetti2021]

31. Oh that's fucking awesome

He's going to Nuke California and New York.

[spanone]

33. He's the most dangerous man on earth.

[bluestarone]

34. possibly immediate impeachment

The ONLY answer here!!! If rethugs want to end America we're fucked!!

[MerryBlooms]

37. R&K This can't be good.

[BSdetect]

38. Clearly no rational defense of these firings. He is insane.
