If Trump promises to nuke ISIS, how bad does he beat Hillary?

I know there's no central address to nuke...

I know that ISIS wants us to launch another ground war so they can fight and kill US troops in person...

But it's going to be difficult to convince more and more voters that this is what ISIS wants and that a Prez Trump is a horrible idea for the whole world.
