In one of Donald Trump’s many gristly interview responses to the Washington Post editorial board, he punted the nuclear football into outer space. Post CEO Fred Ryan asked the Republican presidential front-runner if he would “use a battlefield nuclear weapon to take out ISIS” — a relevant question, given that Trump evaded a similar inquiry in December and has talked generally about “bombing the sh*t out of” ISIS-controlled land.

Trump answered by comparing his foreign policy to his campaign tactics.
