Trump bragged to a reporter that he built a secret new nuclear weapon, according to bombshell bookRyan Pickrell 10 hours ago

....................
..............................
While it is unclear to what Trump was referring, one theory is that he was referring to the W76-2 nuclear warhead, a new warhead for a low-yield submarine-launched ballistic missile that was deployed earlier this year.
Trump likes to boast about US military might and has talked several times this year about the development of what he calls a new "super duper missile," which reportedly turned out to be a new hypersonic glide vehicle being developed for future hypersonic weaponry.


...............

Tensions between the US and North Korea brought the two countries to the brink of war in 2017 and had former Secretary of Defense James Mattis sleeping in his clothes and praying at a local cathedral on the regular, according to the book.

During more recent discussions of those heightened tensions, Trump told Woodward: "I have built a nuclear — a weapons system that nobody's ever had in this country before."

"We have stuff that you haven't even seen or heard about," he continued. "We have stuff that Putin and Xi have never heard about before. There's nobody — what we have is incredible."..........................................

I note that the bragging included the word "I"--as if Trump himself built the new system!





......... "I have built a nuclear — a weapons system that nobody's ever had in this country before."..............

1. So let me get this straight...

...They love evil "science" (physics, aeronautics) when it gives them super weapons.

They hate evil "science" (epidemiology, virology) when it saves lives.

Sounds about right...

[StClone]

15. You see this a lot

Love smart phones, modern medicine, hi-tech cars, modern weaponry technology...but anti-vaxxing, hate global climate change and ecology science.

[pfitz59]

2. I'm sure he's itching to use it.

"Let's nuke Portland.."

[CaptYossarian]

22. The Pentagon sent one to his office.

It cooks a hot dog in under a minute.

[captain queeg]

3. What a dumbass. I'm sure he's let it slip elsewhere

They must cringe when they have to tell him something. Probably avoid even mentioning anything if they can help it.

[Lonestarblue]

21. And how much has Jared shared with MBS?

Jared has access to all the intelligence Trump hears. Given the issues with his security clearance, I’m surprised the Pentagon even shared information about this weapon with Trump, knowing that it would go straight to Jared also. Wouldn’t it be nifty to give Saudi Arabia a fabulous new weapon to use against Iran—in return for big real estate deals.

4. You can take that to the bank. The bank of foolhardiness. Nt

[AleksS]

5. November 4th he will be selling national

secrets on eBay. Just wait and see.

The guy is seriously jacked up in the head!

[Rebl2]

10. It will

take forever to get them as slow as the p.o. is these days.

[PSPS]

6. How many other classified secrets did he brag about in that no-witnesses/notes russian meeting

17. HOW SWEET!

Our BEAN SPILLER IN CHIEF! Never met a secret he could keep!

[cstanleytech]

36. Better question is how many will he take with him as he flees the country and uses them as payment

to get sanctuary inside Russia.

[PoliticAverse]

7. After he's President he can play a villan in the next Bond movie. n/t

[PatSeg]

8. "I have built a nuclear - a weapons system"

Yes, it is extraordinary that he talks as if he built it himself. He has to take credit for everything, but blame for nothing.

[JohnnyRingo]

9. And "Super Duper Missile"....

...is probably how they had to explain it to him.
Twitter is about as tech savvy as he gets.

[Thekaspervote]

11. I hope these stories just keeping coming and coming. It's then our job to spread them as far and

Wide as we can.

His mental health continues to deteriorate

[truthisfreedom]

12. *yawn*

And you could have it all
My empire of dirt
I will let you down
I will make you hurt

[SeattleVet]

13. What an asshole! I got out of the Air Fore 34 years ago...

and there's still a lot of stuff I have never talked about (and will never).

I can't begin to imagine what the hell he's giving away.

[Grokenstein]

14. I'd love to hear from all the assholes who once mocked Al Gore

for "inventing the Internet" (something he never actually claimed) and castigated President Obama for taking credit for killing Osama bin Laden (again, something for which he very pointedly did NOT take credit) yet now support a raving coked-up lunatic who claims he's created a nuclear weapon.

What do you suppose Li'l Don-Don's gonna use it on?
Hurricanes?

[Doug.Goodall]

16. It was the anti-hurricane nuclear attack missile.

Trump gave the United States the ability to attack hurricanes in the Gulf of Mexico and stop them dead.

[louzke9]

19. LOL!

Trump can't even track a hurricane without his magic marker, let alone stop one with his super duper missile!

[tanyev]

18. With his own tiny little hands!

[Uncle_Remus]

20. This made me think of a billboard I saw while driving through Wyoming

It was a picture of a missile. The text said something along the lines of "Making our greatest deterrent even better". I just found it extremely bizarre. Who buys a billboard advertising nuclear missiles? Why would they do that?

[BumRushDaShow]

28. WY was/is one of the states that had/have nuclear silos for ICBMs

[Aviation Pro]

23. Releasing classified information again, Shitbag?

Yeah, I knew you could. Here's a cookie and an 8x12 cell in your future.

[Paladin]

24. That's trump's goodbye present to us: a new worldwide nuclear arms race.

Thanks for nothing, motherfucker.

[Bengus81]

25. And Saddam Hussein had WMD too!!!

Next fantasy................

[bluestarone]

26. RUMP is truly our own

Barney Fife!!!!!

[niyad]

29. Barney was a decent human being.

[bluestarone]

30. Very very true!! and he made my stomach hurt laughing so much

It was his ACTING that made me laugh. With RUMP it's NOT acting. HE truly is dumb as a box of rocks!! But your right I LOVED Barney!!!!!!

[niyad]

27. "We have nukes, why don't we use them."

[yaesu]

31. maddow reported on that last night, she said him mentioning this top secret will start another

arms race with China/russia.

[turbinetree]

32. I wonder if it was him sitting on his golden toilet when he created one.................

just saying..................

[Evolve Dammit]

33. Was that the "super duper rocket" he was yammering about?? Probably wants to hit NYC first.

[usaf-vet]

34. "I built a new nuclear weapon". That idiot couldn't put together a tinker toy set designed for kids.

He doesn't BUILD the buildings he brags about he sells his name TRUMP to put over the entrance.

Build a nuclear weapon what a f..ing joke!

[cstanleytech]

35. Sounds like a little kid telling someone about the neat new toy he got for his 6th birthday and how

it goes zoom zoom.
