If this were to happen, it would be a green light for Putin.

Let's hope to all fuck that our idiotic congress or who the fuck ever, prevents this abject, fucking, idiocy.

Congress isn't stopping him doing anything. I don't see them suddenly changing just to prevent global nuclear war.

Congress’ billionaire handlers all have their doomsday prepping done, so they won’t interfere.
