CNN Pentagon Correspondent Barbara Starr reported that Democratic presidential nominee former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton’s statement about the time it takes to launch nuclear weapons is “extremely classified”.
"A military spokesman told us that they do not discuss operational timelines for launching nuclear weapons. This is some of the most classified information. I asked Defense Secretary Ash Carter at a press conference earlier today. He declined."

It's official folks: Hillary's military leadership is lower than feeble mindedness.
“We have a great general, four-star general, today you read it in all of the papers, going to potentially serve five years in jail for lying to the FBI. One lie. She's lied hundreds of times to the people, to Congress, and to the FBI. He's going to probably go to jail. This is a four-star general,” Trump said.
Of the ICBM force, nearly all (98%) of the 450 missiles are on high alert at any given time, capable of launching within five minutes of the president issuing the launch codes.

The amount of time for a president to respond is classified information? This is very funny, for if one is quick enough to look, the information is there, And it is has been reported time and time again via the different news agencies before last night.
First of all it is a false news that Britebart put out according to Snopes: www.snopes.com...
Then there is this from CNN, from August 7, 2016: www.cnn.com...
In that article it states quite clearly that a president has 5 to 6 minutes, if that depending on where it was launched from to respond.
And MSNBC did a report about a month ago about how long the president would have to make the decision.
And then there is from Bloomberg on the steps on the launching of a Nuclear weapons with times included: www.bloomberg.com...
Then there is this article: foxtrotalpha.jalopnik.com...
That goes into the speed of a missile with a nuclear weapon.
Now if a person, using math, could get the information on how fast a missile could travel and then work out how long till it hits its destination. So that being stated, how is this really classified information, if it has been reported on, and with the information out there, working out how long it would take for a missile to hit a particular destination from various launch points, both land, air and sea?
