The 'Donald Trump's Hurricane Nuke' meme stems from a 2019 report claiming that the former president suggested using nuclear bombs to disrupt hurricanes before they reached the U.S. coastline. While Trump denied the claims, the internet immediately seized on the absurdity of the idea, merging it with the 'Sharpiegate' incident where a weather map was manually altered. The meme is typically used to mock simplistic or over-the-top solutions to complex, unstoppable problems. It remains a staple in political satire, often featuring Trump pointing at a weather map or a mushroom cloud superimposed over a satellite image of a storm.
