Nothing to do with left wing radicals in any respect.
Back in 2004, Putin made a bold statement that Russia was building new war heads. More powerful than ever seen was the statement. Russia is butt hurt about western missile defenses. They feel that they must have a strike package that succeeds on paper and war maps.
Trump is simply an ego maniac and think nukes are the most powerful instrument. He knows very little about soft power or how war actually goes. He too understands that so much of cold wars are theoretical. He wants a strong projection of power and I feel he will thoroughly FUBAR.

I dunno if i read this recently or before, but one of the largest nuclear weapons is one that disperses multiple warheads, and sizable ones at that.
This is the Peackeeper MIRV in action:

Mobile independent red try vehicle.
Aka a warhead
Even boomer launched missiles have 3 or whatever you fit on there.
I remember during bush jr, they talked of putting special forces in place of warheads. Thought it would be a quick way to insert. Talk about loud and dumb.

Mirv is a launch system, a ballistic missle, the delivery system - it carries multiple warheads.
I'm sure that had to be a joke about the special forces no?

they actually planned on having a dick-measuring contest, but it wasn't headline-grabbing
so for sensation and profit-margins, the media-ticians decided to replace "dick-measuring" with "nuclear arms"

Yeah, this is shit you don't fuck around with on Twitter, which is why they absolutely should take away his Twitter privileges immediately.
The truth is, both Russia and the U.S. have invested hundreds of billions in their respective nuclear weapons stockpiles as the weapons were aging and becoming insanely expensive to maintain. That, to my mind, does not justify re-upping a cold war style quiet arms race, but that is what we have done. The U.S. alone will spend over a trillion dollars on this over the next decade.
So, in a sense, Trump is not off-base, but in another sense, he's an idiot. Suggesting that an arms race could be a good thing, or even an okay thing, is extremely unintelligent. Suggesting to other countries that it's okay to stockpile nukes is a very bad and stupid thing, and an extremely dangerous precedent to set.
He can't be as dumb as thinking these are just big bombs, can he?

indeed.
as much as i long for the 90's and, in my own delusional-child's memory, cherish those times, so he does with post WWII growth, because that's the period he grew up in and, presumably cherishes; plus he was on the "winning" or profiting side, which adds to the delusion

I'm even not so rich Americans have that post war delusion. Vietnam kind baked the cake. Can't do everything and nothing when you are delusional and think you can.

That delivery system is definitely one of the more effective ones but the power is dependent upon each individual warhead deployed from the MIRV. To date, the most powerful nuclear weapon ever developed and tested was by the Russians. It's name "Tsar Bomba" means "king of all bombs". The original design called for a 100 megaton yield but it was later cut in half to 50 megatons because it was feared that detonating a weapon of that size would completely obliterate out atmosphere and potentially crack the crust of the earth.
After the nuke was detonated in the arctic circle, the shockwave registered on Richter scales indicated that it had circled the entire planet 3 times. Windows of houses hundreds of miles away from ground zero shattered and roofs were damaged or destroyed. They attached an extra large parachute on the device to give the plane ample time to make it to the minimum safe dos tax from the blast, however upon detonation, the shockwave caused the plane to nosedive for some time before they were able to miraculously recover.
There hasn't been a device that large built or tests since, as it has no realistic application and was simply the USSR flexing their muscles during the height of the Cold War.. Imagine if they had kept the intended 100 megatons?
