Excellent question you posted froggy! It is THE QUESTION of the hour.Will it come from this administration? Can Trump start it?
Remember, everyone, Risk is different than Probability. Risk (R) = Probability (P) multiplied by a measure of Consequences (C)
R = P X C.
Considering the consequences of a nuclear war with Russia, the Risk at present is off the charts even if the probability of such a scenario is only 1 in 1000. And I think P is more like 1 in 100.
It would happen via rapid escalation of conventional war with Russia to the use of relatively small battlefield nukes, then tactical nukes (goodbye NATO HQ in Brussels), then Strategic nukes (goodbye Washington DC and Moscow and perhaps most everyone in the northern hemisphere.
