You don't store nukes alongside regular missiles unless you intend to use them both in the same war.
There ain't gonna be a Cold War II. This war is already hot. The missiles are primed and sitting on the pads. There is no balance of power. There is no mutual deterrence.
There's just China waiting silently with steely asian patience and their hand resting on a big red key. They are bright people and they know you have to watch and wait for just the right moment, which is going to be very soon.
There ain't no deterrence. There is just the waiting now.
