"He refused to rule our using nukes against europe 
However i think its mostly the french he wants to nuke."
Do the French have the third largest nuclear arsenal, after USA and Russia? I'm sure they aren't too bothered! |

Technically there is no big button and he doesn't actually get any launch codes either.

You can only hope the joint chiefs are slightly more thoughtful than Donny tiny hands  |

I'm aware of the technicalities...was speaking metaphorically. He does, officially, have the authority...but might be fun to see what happens if the guys who actually turn the keys tell him no! |

"He want to help europe, he can can see what a mess it is in and he dont want the US to be the same, so he got the eyes on the east."
If he wants to help Europe he should lock himself in a cave. This would also help America. |

Actually he was
Health care reform
Stimulus package
Wall Street reform
Got out of Iraq
Reduced commitment in Afghanistan
Ended use of torture
Massive job creation
Promoted green and renewable technology
And never behaved like an idiot, got involved in sex scandals and didn't treat women like offal.
By any measure he was a success. |

Mine, most us commentators, the 20 million people who got access to health care, the majority of people in the US who voted Democrat.
But please, carry on with your post truth thinking if it allows you to get through the day. |

Why wasn't he a success? The US fared far worse than the U.K. from the financial crash of 2007/2008 and yet it recovered quicker than other countries and is now way ahead of the U.K. recovery.
Notwithstanding these obvious facts, President Obama has conducted himself with stellar dignity in his eight years in office and presented a face of the United States that is unimpeachable. In contrast, the Trumpster will enter the office with the stench and swirl of potential scandal, lies and deceit surrounding him. |

State Dept."Mr President, here is the nuclear button. You now have complete control over the US missile system."
Trump. OK great. Why does it have "Fisher Price" written on it?
State Dept. Err, that's the name of the American scientist who invented nuclear.
Trump. Excellent. Now which direction is Mexico? |

Health care reform? Obamacare has been a disaster and critics and US commentators have picked it to pieces.
USA is still involved in Iraq and Afghanistan to a certain degree and created the instability in those countries in the first place.
Obama's foreign policy has been an unmitigated disaster in Syria and Libya.
Obama has failed to deal with ISIS/ISIL/Daesh or whatever name these scum chose to call themselves these days.
Ended use of torture but Obama said he would close Guantanamo bay, it's still open so that is a broken promise he failed to deliver on.
Massive job creation but failed to control immigration and illegal immigration into the USA to the detriment of American workers.
Promoted green and renewable energy but Obama has over seen the biggest rise in the fracking industry in the USA ever, the jury is still out on the environmental damage being done with fracking on such a large scale.
As for Obama behaving like an idiot, that is debatable. The guy acted like a clown during the EU referendum and is now having to eat his words that we'd be at the back of the queue for a trade deal.
I'd say by any measure, Obama has not been a success. |

Iraq - Bush went in, not Obama
Health care reform - 20 million more people now covered
Foreign policy - taking Iran off the nuclear track and calling Israel to account are hardly bad things
Massive job creation, undeniable
He got it spot on regarding brexit, but hey, what do responsible people know when instead you can have buffoons such as Farage, Trump and Johnson spouting nonsense. |

She wasn't the best they could have put forward, Trump simply ignored facts and figures and kept up a constant diatribe of lies, half truths and misinformation. And a lot of people fell for it. |

Firstly he lost the popular vote, secondly a lot of people were taken in by Trumps lies. When Trump was fact checked, his statements fell apart
"
Saying Hillary won the popular vote is irrelevant. She lost in the electoral collage rules and that is what counts. It's Donald Trump being inaugurated this week not Clinton. Hillary lost, Trump won. |

As I asked before, do you think it's possible that Trump, or his team, would say anything to strengthen his own negotiating position down the line? |

Interestingly enough the nearest we actually got to a presidential launch was Richard Nixon who had always favoured a lunch on Vietnam!.
In fact he was undermined by both his sectary of defence and the military who followed protocol.
.
Contrary to popular opinion the potus cannot just launch nuclear weapons regardless of codes and buttons of myth |
