3 of them actually (Houston, San Antonio, dallas) with Austin at 11

that's if you're looking at strict city boundaries, which isn't a very good measure for statistical purposes as it is heavily influenced by state/local factors. specifically texas has been very open about cities annexing neighboring areas, meaning that on average texas cities tend to have larger city limits compared to other american cities, as well as lower jurisdictional fragmentation across the metro area

if you look at MSA numbers san antonio is like 24 between orlando and portland or, and austin is 31 between kansas city and cleveland

if you look at just city boundaries then jacksonville, florida is the second largest city in the us after anchorage and has the 11th highest population in the us, larger than san francisco, despite clocking in at number 40 as an MSA between milwaukee and oklahoma city

I am sincere. I just don't actually think nuclear war is going to happen. It just seems too surreal and I'm amazed everyone is talking about it as if it's a very real possibility right now. I know it's damaging even if it's just a normal War but I still don't think Trump has the balls to do a real war. He's all talk, he likes Bluster, but an actual War is too much for a coward like him.

My main worry is he's too stupid to realize that before he's already started it. But I'm hoping that this just turns into two people who are egomaniacs yelling at each other until everyone realizes they're not going to do anything other than measure each other's dicks.

While that was mostly flippant, I would say that the majority of the country didn't know it was even a part of us until they started being under threat. I do honestly wonder the response versus if they nuked, say, LA.

The GOP would immediately commission Rasmussen to see if the deaths and displacement of millions of liberals (and the resultant kneejerk vengeance swell) would enable them to realistically flip California in 2018 - well before even enacting legislation to send aid.

The ability of the right wing to hide behind the first amendment while believing in a movement that would absolutely do away with the first amendment if they had the power to do that is astounding.

Also I saw on the news today that the stock market was tanking a bit with all this talk of war. How is that going? I figured Trump hasn't tweeted about how great stocks are today.
