It's been almost possible for years, since the cold war. The Tsar Bomba exists since 1961 and is able to blow up basically half of a country like France.

 

Nobody ever used it, and nobody will anytime soon. The "if my opponent win, we all die" thing is an election strategy worthy of a 5 years old who never learned about nuclear dissuasion. Nothing to do with Hillary being good at her job or anything, it just won't happen.

Tsar Bomba has a blast radius of about the size of Paris.

Orders of magnitude smaller than half of France.

Do not forget this: the Tzar Bomb is 50 years old tech, with no precision delivery. It weighted 27tons. The Satan 2 missile delivers 10 state of the art 10 tons (weight) nukes into a spread area, with pinpoint precision accuracy.

So, yes, overkill.
