The real question is does anyone in government really believe that nuclear weapons are an effective option to fight an insurgency? If so, then why haven't we nuked all the major cities in Afghanistan, Iraq, and other places where we've fought insurgents?
The possession of nuclear weapons is a net negative for U.S. government forces against any likely insurgent force. They can't use them, but insurgents could use them if they were able to steal them. Nuclear weapons are needed for other threats, but to suggest that they would be an effective option against insurgent forces who are trying to overthrow the government is just ignorant.

Re: Biden reminds gun owners the government has F-15’s and nuclear weapons
I'm confused. Is Biden saying that average citizens should pool their money to form militias and buy tanks and fighter planes?
It sure seems like this is the point of his latest statements...
