It Was Another Misunderstanding Or Another Joke?

On his back to the US, on Air Force One, Trump was asked by a reporter whether he meant the US will be doing underground nuclear detonations, to which Trump replied with "Yes. You will find out [details] soon, but yes, we will be doing testing".

Chris Wright, our Sec. of Energy, is now trying to walk this back, on Fox News, by saying that "this will not be a nuclear test at this time".

So, if it's not a nuke test, they will have people jump up and down to simulate one?

I notice the White House is doing its best to make sure the topic is never brought up. Wonder why.

So... if not "nuclear testing" and not "at this time"...

... and given that enough tests were performed in the 1950s and 60 to prove how to design nuclear weapons, which have to be complicated and made to exacting standards to work,

Testing what, when, why?

@ArishMell it was atomic , not nuclear and its test of warheads durability.

You may not realize it yet, but this is a word salad and means nothing.
