While that's funny, I think it's important to note that we spend more by NOT having universal Healthcare. Military dollars aren't competing with Universal Healthcare.
I think if he used a nuke then the game plan would be to hit Russia fast and hard with everything that we have that is not a nuke. Try to cut off all military capabilities and known nuke sites to limit his damage potential.
Putin is just capitalizing on the worlds constant desire to compare every bad person to Hitler and every racist to the Nazis.

Three Russian cosmonauts wear colours of Ukrainian flag as they arrive on space station The Russian team arrived aboard the International Space Station after launching from Kazakhstan and were wearing space suits of yellow and blue- the colours of Ukraine Three Russian cosmonauts have arrived at the International Space Station wearing the colours of the Ukrainian flag. The Soyuz capsule carrying Commander Oleg Artemyev as well as Denis Matveev and Sergey Korsakov docked at the orbiting platform three hours after take off. Their arrival comes amid strong tensions between the US and Russia over the invasion of Ukraine. In a twist, the new arrivals were all wearing the distinctive yellow and blue colours associated with the country Vladimir Putin's forces invaded last month. The mission continues a 20-year-shared Russian and American presence in orbit, despite the war raging below. As the docking procedure was completed a voice from Russia's mission control congratulated the team, according to an English translator speaking during a live Nasa webcast. The trio will replace those set to fly back to Earth on March 30 - cosmonauts Pyotr Dubrov and Anton Shkaplerov and U.S. astronaut Mark Vande Hei. There had been concerns the Russians would refused to allow Vande Hei to travel in a Soyuz capsule and leave him marooned in space, as Putin reacted to the severe sanctions imposed by the countries in the West- including the US. To Nasa's relief they eventually announced he would be allowed inside, despite earlier making a veiled threat he would have to stay. https://www.mirror.co.uk/news/world-news/breaking-three-russian-cosmonauts-wear-26505649
