I fear some of the warmongers may decide they cannot allow the US to collapse without firing the nukes in a 'use them or lose them' type mindset.
Though, you do have a point; we won't get nuke craters due to a first launch against us by the CCP, because DC it too bought by the CCP to actually stand up to them to the level of provoking a nuclear exchange.
You do not seem to get that the wars you monger for are the excuses they use to violate the Constitution.
Or you do, but cannot admit to yourself, because you still fool yourself into thinking you're a good guy.
