NTK: As the news media whines about Trump’s nuclear button tweet, a 2010 book revealed that Clinton misplaced the keys to America’s nuclear arsenal for months.
The media lost its collective mind earlier this week when President Trump tweeted that his nuclear button was “bigger & more powerful” than that of North Korean leader Kim Jong-un.
In an escalating war of words with Kim, the president made sure to remind Pyongyang who has the larger nuclear arsenal. Hint – it’s the United States.
But in a book, written in 2010 by then-chairman of the Joint Chiefs, Gen. Hugh Shelton, it was revealed that President Bill Clinton lost the nuclear codes for months at the end of his administration. In contrast to the dogged reporting of the Trump presidency, the press did not uncover that Clinton did not have access to the U.S. nuclear arsenal. more here
Hillary had them………later found on Weiners laptop
We will probably find out that Russia knew the codes were missing the whole time. Hell, they’re probably the ones who stole them. Smaht Powah, Slick.
I’m sure there was only the one set. That’s why your new car only comes with one key, right?
Willy Jeff is a smart man, when he thinks with his bigger head, which apparently is only when he absolutely needs to. All other times L’il Willy is in control.
Monica was keeping them in a “safe place”. I heard Bill lost his car keys the same way.
Lost, my ass…Sold to the highest bidder is more like it.
I don’t know about this, I became interested in Zero Haliburton cases some time ago. This led me down the path of learning about how these nuclear codes are administered and ultimately used in the event they’re needed. Of course there’s likely some classified information the average id10t like me isn’t privy to, but the procedures identified show a lot of effort goes into maintaining the process.
The codes get stale, there’s a process if they’re lost or stolen, or even if the holder becomes incapacitated or goes off the reservation. Bill or any other president wouldn’t be able to have codes or procedure lost for very long. Further, if someone like a busboy or maid were to find them, they’re completely useless.
Did they look for them in his girlfriend’s apartment?
Girlfriend’s apartment?!
You never heard the joke about the trucker who lost his keys and his entire rig in her hoohaw?
Who would have trusted him with the codes?
I’m a little confused. Isn’t there still a fellow who carries the codes around, the nuclear football (except in a modist, unassuming briefcase)?
It’s not Bill’s fault. Some hot Russian chick said if he gave her the codes, she’s let him do her in the butt.
I can never look at the face of that man without remembering the time I stood naked in front of a full length mirror and evaluated my 70 yr old nut-sack.
Not to worry! There was no “intent”.
