During a new interview on Fox News, President Trump described the realities of what a nuclear war in the country would look like and why he wants to stop it from happening.
President Trump sat down with host Sean Hannity to discuss foreign policy and the realities of war and why he feels that climate change and global warming is not an existential threat.
He indicated that he feels that the potential for nuclear war is far more devastating and is a threat to American life and the world. President Trump told Hannity, “I love this country. I don’t want to see this country get into a nuclear war and be so badly damaged. What we say won’t matter, this place won’t matter, nothing will matter because practically nothing is going to be here anymore.”
Biden has repeatedly empathized that climate change is one of his long-term priorities, but President Trump feels that nuclear war is a much closer threat.
Trump explained, “He [Biden] said it’s an existential threat. And he doesn’t know why! What is it? It’s weather.”
Nuclear war, the president pointed out, comes with “obliteration, maybe world obliteration, and we have a man who is not capable of discussing it.” He added, “The only global warming that matters to me is nuclear global warming. Because that’s the real deal.”
Currently, Russia has the most confirmed nuclear weapons in the world, with 5,500 nuclear warheads, and the U.S. comes in second place with 5,044 nuclear weapons.
While President Trump admits that he, too, is an environmentalist and wants clean air and water, these things won’t matter if they’re destroyed.
Trump emphasized, “Tomorrow, we could have a war that could be so devastating that you could never recover from it. Nobody can. The whole world won’t be able to recover from it.”
He added that when it comes to climate change, Biden is “talking about something happening 400 years from now.”
