Not arguing there. But this was 80 years ago. You would think that making threats of this nature would be something that you would show restraint considering we have a history.

The U.S. is the only country on the planet that has a first-strike policy, i.e., that as a standing matter threatens to use nukes. This is not 80 years ago, this is right now.

Might be an idea not to attack a country with that policy then eh.

Note the seamless transition to this, when "I think Russia does what the U.S. actually does" is shown to be false
