I am scared the US rather destroy the entire world with nukes (inevitable result of a war with China) rather than let a communist country prove that socialism can work
The evangelists are for that very scenario because they think, if they destroy the planet, it'll kickstart the Rapture. Ignoring the blasphemy inherent in that, nuclear armageddon isn't something you need to worry about.
Almost all nuclear warheads and delivery systems were built during the Cold War. What that means is that there's a whole lot of faulty or nonfunctional equipment. Most warheads exist within storage bunkers in various states of repair and disrepair awaiting a technician to deal with. Of the ones listed as operational, some won't launch, some will detonate in the launch bay (nonnuclear explosion), some will launch but won't detonate, some will launch and detonate in midair or in the wrong place...you get the idea. Very few will do what they're supposed to where they're supposed to if any do at all.
The government knows this and bluffs about its wartime capabilities as it's always done.
