In an interview with GQ, Trump stated “I will have a military that’s so strong and powerful, and so respected, we’re not [going to] have to nuke anybody…it is highly, highly, highly, highly unlikely that I would ever be using them.”
In the New York Times, Trump expresses concern, saying, “It’s a very scary nuclear world…[The] power of weaponry today is beyond anything ever thought of, or even, you know, it’s unthinkable, the power. You look at Hiroshima and you can multiply that times many, many times, is what you have today. And to me, it’s the single biggest, it’s the single biggest problem.”
