I could see Trump or Kushner handing over the US nuclear codes to the Russians.
why? and what do you think this would accomplish?

You seriously think they would flee to Russia?  I'd rather be a rich guy in an American white collar prison than a "free" rich guy in Russia.  Maybe you guys and Trump know something I don't (seems unlikely though).


and what do you think the Russians would do with codes?  The codes by themselves aren't particularly useful, they aren't magic.

Mutually assured destruction is a de facto reality that prevents countries from using nukes. If you push the button, the entire world dies.
this is not true in 2017/18
