President Joe Biden continued to explain and modify his warning about nuclear “Armageddon” from Russia, a stark suggestion about the potential for escalation in Russia’s war against Ukraine he made last week.
The most recent remarks came in a wide-ranging interview with CNN host Jake Tapper, which aired Tuesday and covered both domestic and international issues. Asked by Tapper whether he thought Putin would actually use nuclear weapons, Biden said, “I don’t think he will. But I think that it’s irresponsible for him to talk about it.”
The threat of a nuclear weapon could lead, Biden said, “to just a horrible outcome. And not because anybody intends

The Demented Fuhrer......2019..........
"Putin knows that when I am president of the United States his days of tyranny and trying to intimidate the United States and those in Eastern Europe are over."

As Gates said, schmoe bidet has been wrong about every major issue his entire career. As obumbum said, never underestimate schmoe’s ability to f everything up he touches.
Sounds like we have a problem. And no one is home. If a crisis emerges, everyone will be frozen with uncertainty about who should act. Unless of course an Alexander “I’m in Control” Haig steps up. It’ll probably just be a circle of nimrods hesitating to defer to someone else to act and no one will. Schmoe’s a big talker and a do nothinger.

Even a broken clock is right twice a day.
This is the ONLY thing where I agree with him.

“I think it’s irresponsible of him (Putin) to talk about it.” Is this person serious? He’s been talking about it. Armmegeddon. He probably doesn’t even remember saying it. God help this country.

He didn't think Putin would invade either. Trouble is Biden doesn't think. He doesn't have the capability to think, and whoever is doing it for him is not capable either.

His handlers took a poll and found out that his Armageddon comment was not well received, so they told him to walk back his comments. Again.

Considering Biden's track record, everyone ought to dig a hole and line it with lead.
I personally think the Elites decided at their annual meetings that they better initiate some population control before all 'their' oil, gas and coal were used up. They used to do population control through warfare - kill off the hot blooded young men before they started blaming the Elites for their poverty.
But war has gotten fairly hazardous.
So, feed the masses a medicine that kills or sterilized. They 'll never guess... Except the masses have' guessed'.
Offer them more medicine that kills, claiming it fixes what was wrong with the first?...
Not buying it...
OH, well! Constance! get the kids in the bunker. Send the hired help out on last minute errands. We'll lock them out so we have more when the nukes are going off. The survivors will HAVE To depend on us, when we come out, again!

I don’t think that Putin will use nukes either but for a different reason. Putin wants Ukraine for his own. What good would it do him if Ukraine is a smoldering radioactive uninhabitable cinder?

No doubt Biden’s mind is bouncing around! Why make any kind of off the cuff forecast like that as there is always a 50% chance you could be wrong?

Re #6, I was certain that Putin would invade, just not sure exactly when. I think the chances of the use of nuclear weapons by Putin is lower than 5%, nearly zero. I think even Putin recognizes that there is no upside to that move, just nothing at all to gain down that path.
But - for those who are genuinely frightened about the chances of a nuclear war, a bit of knowledge and possibly preparation may provide some solace.
Get Cresson Kearny's Nuclear War Survival Skills book, about $11 for the paperback edition.
And go to KI4U, Inc's web site and look over their calibrated and refurbished dosimeters and Geiger counters.
I have no financial connection to any of that, just useful sources of information and gear.
I've had all of these things for a couple of decades, learned a few things, and know how to deal with that extremely unlikely possibility.

Joe, you've been wrong about EVERY single thing in your entire (too long) career in politics. Why should we believe your lying lips now?
I feel less safe today than ever.

Biden also "doesn't think" there will be a recession, and he "doesn't think" the Dems will lose the Senate, etc. Clearly he just "doesn't think".

Hey Joe. Why not ask him, "Pretty please?" That should do it.
