And now he wants to bring back firing squads. Okay, why? Lethal injection is far more dignified, painless and certain. Dead is dead - he might as well bring back hanging. Or the electric chair. Or crucifixion (wouldn't that bother Leo!). Or burning at the stake. Or tossing offenders out of the new (illegally-obtained, or at least unconstitutionally) Air Force One.

He's leaving a right old mess for his successor to sort out (assuming there will be one, if he doesn't pull a coup and become the dictator he obviously wants to be).

Plus he tried to nuke Iran. If they don't have nukes yet, they're likely to develop them - and use them - out of fear. Precedent: the Manhattan Project. It was driven, though they don't want to admit this, by fear of the Axis powers. In fact Germany wasn't as far along in its research as they feared.

Did he ever see Threads? Or The Day After? Or By Dawn's Early Light, even?

Broadwave to all would-be warmongers (got a bit of a Firefly fixation goin' on ATM): no-one wins even a conventional war. BUT NO-ONE CAN WIN A NUCLEAR WAR! IT IS IMPOSSIBLE!
