I remember there being a whole lot of fear of nuclear war in the 80s.

My memories of this are actually the late 60's
I remember back then there were many signs saying "fallout shelter"

I am with you TP in the 60's the government was pushing people to build a backyard bomb shelter and some people did. There were ads from companies that sold them.

So one fine day Trump's new lawyer goes on TV and says Trump and his old "lawyer" conspired to violate campaign finance laws.

Oh, wait. That's not a joke.

So Trump is well and truly trumped by now (note; the verb "to trump" in this context means "to f**k" (so as not to annoy the new Victorians here and keep their bloomies in place)).

Nobody recalls that Reagan was going
to start WW III with the Soviets and
blow us all up? Nobody remembers
all the nuclear holocaust movies of the
80's? Really?

Watch the show The Americans,
about soviet espionage in the US in the
80's, they talk about it all the time.

I'm amused at how triggered our resident righties were by a silly joke.

I don't get why me mentioning global warming in the eighties has anything to do with fall out shelters from the sixties.

Point is, there was a huge nuclear war
scare in the 80's. You don't remember
because you weren't paying attention.

Maybe you should check the Doomsday clock.

Looks worse now, than the 80s on average.
You believe in an invisible god, and dismiss people who say they are trans? Really?
