'No Red Button' Campaign Conjures Terrifying Image of Trump With Nukes

Donald Trump with his finger on the nuclear red button.

It’s an unsettling image that Hillary Clinton has employed throughout her campaign, and it’s the focus of a new video launched Thursday by the No Red Button campaign.

“Donald Trump is weeks away from having the unchecked ability to light the world on fire,” Meredith Horowski, the director of the campaign, told Common Dreams. “His flippant statements condoning nuclear violence and his penchant for revenge suggest that as president, he would do just that. He could launch thousands of nuclear weapons at any time—each one vastly more powerful than the bomb that obliterated Hiroshima—and no one could stop him.”

Juxtaposing Trump’s own trigger-happy statements with graphic images of nuclear victims, the video “delivers a gut-punch to viewers and serves as call to Americans to fight like hell to keep Donald Trump out of the White House,” Horowski said.

Claiming Trump’s potential access to nukes is “the #1 issue that can convince swing voters to drop him,” the No Red Button campaign is fundraising to launch targeted ads in a dozen swing states.
