      Not to take away from this, but it’s a myth that the US president can start a nuclear war by pressing a button, it’s a lot more complicated than this.

            Fun fact, he likely got the idea from Sharknado, since he was supposed to do a cameo in the third one as US president, which he couldn’t when he actually ran for president. In the movie, a “Sharkicane” is attacked with giant bombs.
