Trump and Elon were discussing the irrational fear that people have for nuclear energy. The truncated quote posted above obscures the broader conversation contex, being that cities hit with nuclear bombs are actually habitable. [Link] NEEDS_MORE_RATINGS(38-3-154) Author

NNN referring to the bombings of Hiroshima and Nagasaki as an example of how-not to be frightened about nuclear energy is misleading. The devastation of nuclear weapons is vastly different than nuclear energy. Bringing up Chernobyl would have been appropriate. NEEDS_MORE_RATINGS(40-2-12) Author

Y'all are just confirming what was said.. Over 200,000 people died, but the cities are habitable NOW so it's fine. Re-phrasing it doesn't make it any less horrific NEEDS_MORE_RATINGS(13-0-6) Author

Hiroshima and Nagasaki were bombed with nuclear weapons, which present different issues than an accident with a nuclear reactor. Better informed debaters would consider Fukushima and Chernobyl as examples. [Link] NEEDS_MORE_RATINGS(5-0-5) Author
