As of 2016, there have been 2,624 nuclear explosions throughout history. A few more won't end the world. Just too horrific to use? Nagasaki and Hiroshima killed a combined 226,000 people. We killed more people in the last two conventional wars. This will minimize future casualties if it works.

China wants to rule the world. The US does a shitty job of running things and that's an understatement, but I don't think China would be better. They're the most murderous people in history.

I say we give Taiwan a dozen nukes and they can do with them what they want.
