Some in Congress are concerned about Trump starting a nuclear war with N.K. As a result they are considering a law which would prohibit a first Strike by the US. While I may have some agreemeent with such a law. there is this to consider. Are we willing to sacrifce a US city to first strike. Say L.A. So what should a President do? Wait untill millions of people die to launch a retaliation, or strike first and turn N.K into a parking lot? Opinions please. Here is my shot at it. I don't think this law is a good idea. It is never a good idea to let a potential adversary know your plans.

Congress has shown that they can't pour piss out of a boot if the instructions are on the bottom of the heel. They should stick to what they seem to know best. Lining their pockets.

First strike because of reckless taunting by a madman? Not a very good idea unless the President is desperate to focus everyone's attention on just one issue.

We should show restraint! Only after they have nuked LA, SF,NYC,SEATTLE, SACRAMENTO should we fire back. That will give us the moral high ground!

Is there room for locker room discussions while occupying said moral high ground? Can there be talk regarding the grabbing of certain things??

No problem! Maintaining status quo is to be expected.

Okay! WHICH madman are we discussing? Rocket Boy or Widdle Donnie, our very own Mango Mussolini? Widdle Donnie should dial down his "outrage" at the insults hurled his way by Rocket Boy. Our ranting toddler needs to grow a thicker skin.
