Bill Richardson is slamming Trump’s tweet about increasing nukes.

…Trump once again grabbed headlines via Twitter by tweeting out that the U.S. must “strengthen and expand its nuclear capability.” It was noted that Russian President Vladimir Putin also made similar comments about nuclear strength during a military defense meeting.

Appearing on MSNBC this, former US Ambassador to the UN Bill Richardson heavily criticized Trump’s approach to discussing nuclear armament. Asked by host Katy Tur if Trump’s comments were warranted, especially in light of Putin’s since they could be seen as a veiled threat to America, Richardson answered in the negative.

“No, they weren’t warranted,” the ex-New Mexico governor responded. “What we now have is foreign policy by tweet.”
