I'm not sure if this is good or bad that the PHRASECENSOREDPOSTERSHOULDKNOWBETTER. candidates are using doomsday scenarios in their rhetoric. It may move prepping more mainstream, or it may get us written off as "right wing, <insert favorite stereotypes here>, nutters". Either way, it's worth mentioning.

Quote:
In the PHRASECENSOREDPOSTERSHOULDKNOWBETTER. presidential debate last Saturday, Ted Cruz laid out a dark scenario to demonstrate the need for a beefed-up missile defence system – the same one Rick Santorum and Ben Carson had raised before him in earlier debates. He said that North Korea was working on a satellite, which could spell doom for America:

“As it would orbit around the Earth, and as it got over the United States, they would detonate that nuclear weapon and set off what’s called an EMP, an electromagnetic pulse which could take down the entire electrical grid on the Eastern seaboard, potentially killing millions.”
