Easily? It isn't exactly something you can just buy at the local 7/11.
Every time Iran tries to build a centrifuge for fuel enrichment, we leave a crater where it once stood. If we are removed from NATO, and see that former NATO members are a risk of starting a nuclear war, we will start bombing their facilities too. Our allies only have nukes now because we allow them to. If they stop being our allies, we will stop allowing it.
Once they have them, we would just bankrupt them by putting 200% tarrifs on them until they give them up. If Europe thinks they can take on the world's only superpower, they are dreaming.
Publicly, France has around 200. US and Russia have around 1.7-2k on standby and more can be built easily with each countries stockpiles. There might be a few off the books in the EU but the number completely pales to Russia and US.
The UK has some, France has some and I'm sure that other countries could easily find some.

You're half right, but once they actually have nukes we won't directly lay a hand on them, because MAD is too dangerous to meddle with.

You only need a few hundred to end the world.
