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.

 

Yeah, I remembered it wrong. The blast radius is about the size of Paris but a lot more people would be affected by the bomb. It's more like 1/4 of the french population would be directly affected by the bomb.
