At the third debate, Hillary Clinton let slip some of the most classified information of the USA. She told the world that there's about a four minute time lag between the president ordering the launch of nuclear weapons and the actual launch of those doomsday devices.
Think about that for a moment. Everyone already knew that America would get at most a twenty to thirty minute warning of a nuclear attack depending on the site from which the attack comes. What very few people knew was how long the president had to decide to strike back and how long it would take to act on that decision once made. Not anymore! Hillary, who clearly knows this highly classified information, just told the world.
Now imagine that instead of Hillary having said that, it had been Donald Trump who made the statement. Imagine the wholesale outrage and upset across all the media and from all the other Democrat operatives. We would never hear the end of it.
When Hillary discloses classified information like this, however, there's hardly a ripple of comment. I assume that by tomorrow, FBI Director Comey will announce that while Hillary's release of this highly classified information was extremely careless, he could see no intent here, so she won't be prosecuted.
The nuclear secret that Hillary disclosed is not quite the same as all the other classified information that Hillary put at risk on her private unsecured email server. With the email system, there had to be an act by our enemies to get the classified information. They had to hack into Hillary's system. The nuclear launch window information was different. That doesn't require any action by our enemies. Hillary just told it to them at the debate.
If anyone really doubts that Hillary Clinton is unfit to be president, he or she need only consider Hillary's inability to keep her mouth shut when it comes to classified info.
