“The election of President Donald Trump has made a lot of people feel very uncomfortable with the fact that he alone can authorise the use of nuclear weapons." -- Beatrice Fihn, head of the International Campaign to Abolish Nuclear Weapons (Ican), speaking to reporters after her organization won the 2017 Nobel Peace Prize on Sunday. The Nobel Committee noted that the world is closer to nuclear war now than in decades.
Fihn has no illusions about unhinged narcissist Donald "Rump" Trump's capacity to exercise restraint in the escalating conflict with North Korea, tweeting shortly before being notified of the Nobel Committee's selection in October:
Donald Trump is a moron.— Beatrice Fihn (@BeaFihn) October 4, 2017
Indeed, Ms. Fihn, and a dangerous one at that.
