that the point the story was never supposed to have a sequel
it was a single self contained story
reese said they destroyed the time machine after they sent him back
the nuclear storm was supposed to happen at the end of the movie

They made all kinds of money with the first movie and they tacked on a sequel which screwed up the whole premise with the ending (if they had prevented skynet reese could not have been sent to the past, ergo john conner should have disappeared)
