Tillerson called Trump a moron because Trump asked to increase the nuclear arsenal to peak Cold War levels (4,000 to 32,000). Seriously. 1/x

The obvious: -America's 4,000 provide a sufficient deterrent -Deterrence is all they're good for -28,000 more nukes would cost trillions 2/x

We saw this coming. In the campaign, he didn't know what the nuclear triad is or why the US doesn't use nukes. https://www.cnbc.com/2016/08/03/trump-asks-why-us-cant-use-nukes-msnbcs-joe-scarborough-reports.html … 3/x

Even if you could somehow excuse this ignorance during the campaign, he's been in office, in charge of the nuclear arsenal, for 9 months 4/x

Keep Trump's request for 28,000 more nukes in mind as he asks for a military spending increase of $70 billion or more per year. 5/x

Why does America need a big military spending increase? What strategy does it enable? Trump doesn't say. Because he doesn't know. 6/x

I oppose military spending cuts. But I don't see any essential national security strategy that's served by a big spending increase. 7/x

It's especially odd juxtaposed with Trump saying how we have no money, that helping Puerto Rico throws "our budget out of whack," etc. 8/x

Trump doesn't understand the most important thing a POTUS must understand, and doesn't care to learn. How does this not bother everyone? 9/9
