Nearly half think Trump would launch a nuclear weapon.

Political Wire:

A new SurveyMonkey poll finds that nearly half of all voters — 46 percent — think Donald Trump would use a nuclear weapon to attack ISIS or another foreign enemy.

Also interesting: “Sixty-five percent said that there would be race riots in major cities during a Trump administration, and 44 percent believe Trump would authorize internment camps for illegal immigrants.”

Please tell me that no one who actually believes this could still vote for this asshole.

Do his supporters not realize how devastating nukes are? Are they under the impression that it's just localized destruction?

They believe our weapons are old so they wouldn't work and that the fallout would stay there and not drift over here.
