Poland’s president wants the US to base some of their nuclear weapons on Polish soil, to deter Russia.

Do you think this would be a good move?

    How about Polish nukes on Polish soil? Trump is sooner going to launch a nuke at Warsaw then his buddy Putin in Moscow.

      It would be cool if European countries joined together to make a European nuclear force (starting with French and British nukes I guess, and then they can pool money to fund further weapons development).

      Maybe this will happen in the future, but it might be a while until then.

      That’s a big [citation needed]. Trump is a narcissist, a would-be legacy builder, and he’s enormously jealous that Obama (unjustifiedly) got the Nobel peace prize. He wants that thing too. The unfortunate bit is that Trump does not understand human rights or modernity or synergstic relationships. The other thing is that Trump is a bully and a coward.

      What I’d buy is that Trump would not defend Poland in the slightest and just move US troops in Europe back to the US, especially in the face of a Russian attack.
