Re: the nuclear response time.

No, @HillaryClinton did not reveal any secret about how quickly we can launch 🚀. This is widely known, often cited. https://t.co/3z2VQEUlDm

It’s total BS. And what Clinton stated isn’t exactly a state secret. In fact, it’s widely accepted as a response time for the President to deliberate on whether to inform the NMCC to respond with a nuclear reprisal.

Bottom line: It’s bullshit.
