My biggest concern is for what, exactly, does Trump’s adviser/s want to kick off nuclear testing? I wouldn’t be surprised if there’s talk in his circle about potentially using nuclear weapons if Trump re-takes the WH, & they may already be putting targets on certain “enemies”. Dangerous stuff.
First, a return to explosive nuclear testing by USA would likely result in most other nuclear states explosively testing. USA has most extensive, & best instrumented, test record & thus most to lose. 2nd, good luck finding a test site b/c Las Vegas has grown enormously & made Nevada not usable.

I think a lot of it is “nukes powerful, setting off nukes makes us powerful” but who knows.

I think it's more simplistic. I think Trump himself wants to deploy nukes, just to have the experience of ordering them used.

That’s not my take but also, who knows? I doubt Trump even does much of the time.
