But do you think Trump means it that way? The dude has a hard on for nukes and wants to appear like a big, strong, threatening man (despite his itty bitty nuke chode), so to me it seems more likely that he’s referring to subs with nukes on-board. Assuming there’s any truth to his threat at all, which given the source, does warrant extreme skepticism.
NO. Trump means “boomer”, ballistic missile submarines armed with a dozen+ ICBMs whose warheads splits into Multiple Independently-targetable Reentry Vehicles (MIRVs).
He’s made a clear and present threat: “I just ordered the most powerful weapon platforms into your backyard.”
They know those boomers are somewhere, easily able to strike Russia. You know it. I know it. But in diplomatic terms, this is the worst threat I’ve heard from the head of a nation state. And I lived the Cold War.
Nuke subs just means powered by nuclear. They may or not have nuclear weapons.

Who knows? He’s visibly unwell, physically and mentally.

He is referring to boomers, no question. See my other comments on this thread.
