Unfortunately, US already has more than enough nukes to end the world. I feel like after a certain point the arms race just doesn't matter.

Your concern is valid but don't fall for defeatism

For sure, in my view we have to recognize that scenarios like the nuclear holocaust are possible, but we have to plan for a future where they don't happen. As long as there is hope for a better world, then it's worth keep fighting for it.
