Paul: Trump has no clue what the nuclear triad is

We need a mothafuckin BAWS, not a wonk. If somebody needs nukin', Trump will get them nuked, and it will come from the necessary part of the triad. This Trump-is-a-dumbass argument will go nowhere.

That's okay.

Cruz doesn't know what a natural born citizen is. Trump does.

Paul probably doesn't know what a credit default swap is. Trump does.

It takes 5 seconds to grasp what the nuclear triad is.

See how long it takes you to understand what a credit default swap is.

And the Hildabeest doesn't know what difference Benghazi makes.

I'll take Trump any fucking day.

I'm not sure how Paul expects to gain from shit like this. Trump knows about all the individual components of our nuclear arsenal. The fact he doesn't know the term dreamed up to describe the sum of them all is completely irrelevant.

Enjoy your single-digit polling nums, Paul. You earned it.

Trump along with the vast majority of adults over 30 know what a nuclear triad is but not so much the term.

Do you really believe Trump doesn't know about Bombers, ground launched ICBs and Nuclear Subs?

I personally believe we also have Space Based nukes which would mean the Triad term is obsolete.

You have to be an idiot to believe that just because he didn't know the 50 year old term or watch Dr Strangelove he cant be Commander in chief.

Obama's ignorance of all things never bothered anyone.

He knows what the nuclear football is, he knows what nuclear weapons are, he just didn't know this nerdspeak term "nuclear triad". Who the fuck has heard of that? I have a Bachelor's Degree in Political Science and I've never heard the term either. Rand Paul is making much ado about nothing.

Precisely. My respect for Rand Paul has gone down significantly just from this one attack. It's fucking retarded and makes me wonder if Randy boy isn't autistic or something.

Wonder why Rand stays in the race? There is no chance he can get the nomination. Huckabee, Carley, and Santorum should all leave with him after Iowa.

Even if they're really running for VP, why would Paul attack Trump over such a BS thing?

Paul just made that up

Because Pauls likely to win Iowa, Ron won the majority of delegates there in 2012

This. The first time I ever heard the term was on Hugh Hewitt's radio program before the debates. As far as I know, he might have made up the term.

I am a news tard, as well as wife to a naval officer, and I had never once heard that term prior to a few months ago. And neither had anybody else, so I'm not that concerned over it.

Who gives a fuck? It's not significant. Trump will have People to do that. He just tells them what and when.

You keep saying that like someone might believe you. Are you the moron that kept saying that Ron Paul wore diapers?


It's spelled Billionaire

Exactly. Jimmy Carter was a wonk that could tell you the throw weight and the number of missiles and mirvs on every sub in the navy and you see where that got us.

Interesting train of thought by Mr Paul.
I would worry more if he did know all about it.
That would hint to me that maybe he might want to use those items.

The man does have a plan...I am tired of a leader flapping in the wind.

I've heard the term, and more than once. But I actually spend 99% of my time reading and learning instead of running my mouth (or fingers).

It doesn't bother me that Trump didn't know this particular fact. But it does raise questions in my mind about what else he doesn't know. I'm guessing the answer is 'a lot'. But then again, he's busy running an empire - while I'm basically a peasant (albeit a very bright one).

I want to like Trump. He says a lot of the right things. We need a man who calls it like he sees it, and who actually sees it the right way, someone with balls. However, as has been pointed out in this thread, he also says things that should be very disconcerting to liberty and Constitutionally-minded folks.

he would blow us all up

Trump supporters are Obama 2.0 supports. Look at the comedians thread, they openly mock the Constitution.
