Tuesday during the Senate Foreign Relations Committee’s hearing to look into the president’s authority to order the use of nuclear weapons, Sen. Chris Murphy (D-CT) said they were “concerned” President Donald Trump was “so unstable” that he might order a nuclear weapon strike.

Murphy said, “Let me just pull back the cover for a minute from this hearing. We are concerned the president of the United States is so unstable, is so volatile, has a decision-making process that is so quixotic, that he might order a nuclear weapon strike that is wildly out of step with U.S. national security interests.”
