I think the Democrat Party is doing that right now.

"The Samson Option.
The name is a reference to the biblical Israelite judge Samson who pushed apart the pillars of a Philistine temple, bringing down the roof and killing himself and thousands of Philistines who had captured him,.crying out "Let me die with the Philistines!" (Judges 16:30).
Israel refuses to confirm or deny it has nuclear weapons or to describe how it would use them, an official policy of nuclear ambiguity, also known as "nuclear opacity." This has made it difficult for anyone outside the Israeli government to describe the country's true nuclear policy definitively, while still allowing Israel to influence the perceptions, strategies and actions of other governments. However, over the years, some Israeli leaders have publicly acknowledged their country's nuclear capability: Ephraim Katzir in 1974, Moshe Dayan in 1981, Shimon Peres in 1998, and Ehud Olmert in 2006.
During his 2006 confirmation hearings before the United States Senate regarding his appointment as George W. Bush's Secretary of Defense, Robert Gates admitted that Israel had nuclear weapons.[8] In his 2008 book The Culture of War, Martin van Creveld, a professor of military history at Israel's Hebrew University, wrote that since Gates admitted that Israel had nuclear weapons, any talk of Israel's nuclear weapons in Israel can lead to "arrest, trial, and imprisonment." Thus Israeli commentators talk about "doomsday weapons" and the Samson Option.
Nevertheless, as early as 1976, the CIA believed that Israel possessed 10 to 20 nuclear weapons. By 2002, it was estimated that the number had increased to between 75 and 200 thermonuclear weapons, each in the multiple-megaton range. Kenneth S. Brower has estimated as many as 400 nuclear weapons. These can be launched from land, sea and air. This gives Israel a second strike option even if much of the country is destroyed."

Trump wouldn't know leadership period if it bit his mushroom dik while giving him a BJ.
Really ? A man who prior to running for office built up international name recognition running a billion dollar conglomerate , fostered good will among countless demographics , built a television reality show that was so successful he got a star on the walk of fame . Defeated the best and brightest of the Republican Party and all the money that bought them . Yes sire bob , you are right he just doesn’t understand leadership .
Cute . Put Trudeau , Obama , Clinton , Marcon , and even Horgan in the picture and the message is the same .
Well actually real leaders , don’t fold like a cheap cigar when the opposition uses every tactic in the book to derail his agenda , and some that aren’t in the book .
Our Conservative party here in Canada had a nice malleable leader , very nice man , little controversy , where did that get him ? Leader of squat .
Poor Nut Zone Doug - the RED CHINESE AGENT - who DOES NOT EVEN LIVE IN NORTH AMERICA

Poor burned out Ember would have her HEAD EXPLODE if anybody asked her to define "STATESMAN"!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Just so you know burned out Ember - a statesman IS THE OPPOSITE of a politician!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
The politician tells you what he thinks you want to hear.......................
even if it is wrong or even harmful - as so much LIE-beral policy IS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
The politician is willing to employ FAKE NEWS to FOOL the public!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
The statesman tells you what he believes you need to know....................................
even if you dont really want to hear the truth!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
The statesman is willing to state his case and wait for you to gain wisdom and then support him!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
There are a great many politicians in the LIE-beral party......................
BUT THERE ARE NO STATESMEN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
The inability of burned out Ember to understand this is proof of her selfish blinkered HOG GREED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Yes, because the month and sun scare the virus's...
Well it's easy to see why you love Trump so much Wally, you're just as lackluster and unintelligent as him.
It is funny that you mention that... a Doctor on NPR (the far left, liberal, government funded funded radio) this morning said exactly that!
