President Trump has suggested multiple times to senior Homeland Security and national security officials that they explore using nuclear bombs to stop hurricanes from hitting the United States, according to sources who have heard the president's private remarks and been briefed on a National Security Council memorandum that recorded those comments.

Behind the scenes: During one hurricane briefing at the White House, Trump said, "I got it. I got it. Why don't we nuke them?"

@Graylight You have a solution besides bitching to help mitigate hurricane damage?

@sunsporter1649 Natural occurrence. I do know setting off nuclear weapons won't help.

@Graylight So is climate change, but you keep claiming you can control climatary processes, why not hurricanes?

@sunsporter1649 When did I say we can control climate change?

Could we have lessened the impact? Yeah, and here's where the hard-to-understand part comes - hurricanes are isolated, contained individual storms. Climate change is the pattern of all weather over period of time, taking into consideration many gradual processes.

@Graylight Including the driver of our climate here on earth, that little yellow thing in the sky we call the sun

@sunsporter1649 That's weather. Climate is climate.

@Graylight LOL, of course the sun has nothing to do with it, how silly of me to think otherwise. Only mankind controls the climate

@sunsporter1649 You are truly, hopelessly, tragically uninformed. What would you know of the sun living in that dark, dark cave?
