Lest we forget - Only one nation has used nuclear arms

to attack another nation. If Trump, for some demented reason, does it again, the United States of America will become a pariah of nations. And that is how it should be. Nuclear weapons do not discriminate between military forces and civilians. We have forgotten the devastation they caused.

We must never use that vile technology in a first strike against anyone. Period. If we do, we lose our humanity, and any right we may have had as a leading nation. Trump must never be allowed to do that.
