Trump : "The United States must greatly strengthen and expand its nuclear capability until such time as the world comes to its senses regarding nukes"

We already have mutually assured destruction. Even detonating a small number of nuclear weapons in a small area would be enough to cause catastrophic consequences. Currently, only 9 countries possess nuclear weapons, and the US and Russia own over 90% of them. So who exactly are we fighting? We already own more than everyone else. Are we starting another cold war with Russia? The US was one of the driving forces behind the nuclear nonproliferation treaty, and many countries either got rid of their nuclear weapons or shelved their research because of it. So we are now going to end our own treaty and signal to other countries that maybe they need to start re-evaluating their decision to stay nuclear weapon free? Yeah... Great plan.
