Conservative writer believes a President Trump makes nuclear war more likely
What I fear about the age of Trump
But the biggest danger of the Trump era is the one that sounds most hysterical to bring up: the danger of sliding into nuclear conflict.
One of the few virtues of the political class that Trump has displaced was its terror of nuclear weapons and its recognition that American power and prosperity rested on husbanding, not exercising, this power. Along with this terror, there was an elaborate form of politesse when it came to talking about nukes.

Lastly, Trump also takes office at precisely the moment when the very last policy advisers who personally remember the awful costs of great power conflict are dying. It was precisely these men who kept the Cold War from getting hot. Do I think the risk of nuclear conflict is particularly high? No. But throughout the Trump era it will be appreciably higher than it has been since 1991. Families, not just policymakers and journalists, should be discussing how to handle it.
