You mean like how the Munich Summit made World War II less likely?

BornAgainChristian:

The Helsinki Summit dialed back the Doomsday Clock at least 8 minutes. Choosing the peace of the planet above his own political gain Trump forged an improved relationship with president Putin.

Russia’s unstoppable Satan 2 missiles perhaps a factor in his decision:

No. Like Singapore and now Helsinki as dialed back the Doomsday clock.

I will sleep better tonight than the day before.

Thank you President Trump!

Because appeasing dictators always works.

It must suck to live in constant fear.

Out of curiosity, to which Doomsday clock are you referring? Since (as I’m sure you don’t care in terms of how it relates to your OP), the “official” one remains unchanged this morning at 2 minutes to midnight (and now, I strangely feel like some Iron Maiden…).

Treason!

You are praising us being more scared of Russian than they are of us? We spend many time more than Russia on military… why are we concerned?

You can’t be serious. Why are we concerned about a nuclear power? The same reason we have allowed China to get away with hacking us for decades, because the answer to nuclear powers hacking us are electronic defenses and counter measures, not a nuclear exchange.

Just what I was wondering. I searched online, and every source I could find said it was still set at 2 minutes until midnight. I’m not sure where the OP is getting his information.

It’s the doomsday clock in BAC head…

Two minutes to midnight!

The hands that threaten doom!

Two minutes to midnight!

To KILL, the unborn in the womb!

Yeah, I checked as well, and no changes. They meet twice a year to discuss and reset as appropriate, not on an ad hoc basis; interestingly, the Cuban Missile Crises came and went in between meetings, so never impacted the clock at all (probably would have been set to a second before midnight at that point).

Why does the OP feel compelled to mislead? Oh, yeah, he’s just trolling . . . again.

You uh, got a little something on your nose there, Donald.

He’s referring to Donald’s personal Doomsday Clock, which was set at 30 seconds to midnight back in 1776 and hadn’t budged until Dear Leader took office.

Suddenly the clouds broke, the birds sang, and Teletubbies pranced on the hillside.

I find it amazing that anyone gives the so-called doomsday clock any credence. It’s nothing more than the imagination of intellectual egg heads.

I don’t disagree. Although, it is good for a discussion point relative to nuclear proliferation, and why it is important to dramatically limit its prevalence in the world.

If history is a guide, it could be argued that the closer “the clock” gets to midnight, the less likely that a global nuclear war will occur.
