According to Scarborough, a foreign policy expert who briefed Trump told him that the Republican nominee repeatedly asked him about our country’s reluctance to use nuclear weapons.

“Three times he asked about the use of nuclear weapons,” Scarborough said. “Three times he asked, at one point, ‘If we have them, why can’t we use them?’ That’s one of the reasons he doesn’t have foreign policy experts around.”

Scarborough then asked his guest, former CIA and National Security Agency Director Michael Hayden, about whether there were any ways to stop Trump from ordering a nuclear strike if he were elected president.

“The system is designed for speed and decisiveness,” Hayden replied. “It’s not designed to debate the decision.”

1. I'd like to see/hear the answers given.

What were the explanations? Why didn't the answers sink in? Too complex?

I mean, it is ridiculous for him to not know why not use them, but after explanation, he still didn't get it?
