“But here’s the deal. The bottom line on nuclear weapons is that when the president gives the order, it must be followed. There’s about four minutes between the order being given and the people responsible for launching nuclear weapons to do so.” –Hillary Clinton If this statement along does not sink this boob then nothing will...
I think she made the comment to imply that Trump was a hothead and if he were to impulsively give the command, there would be very little time to reconsider.
That being said, even if she did nothing wrong legally, Twitter was all abuzz! She screwed up big time.
What’s the name of the movie? (save me the imdb search)

LOL My Husband HATES that movie. From the dog being on the sub to the line “turn the damn key” to the process of emergency action messages (EAM), of use of launch keys, steel gratings in the missile compartment.......
But watching submarines in movies or TV is tough because they get it so terribly wrong .. He was a submariner for 27 years.
He says that the Hunt for Red October and U 571are the most accurate movies for their time period..
Color
Aside from the rare solid-colored horse (usually bay or black), most Lipizzans are gray. Like all gray horses, they have black skin, dark eyes, and as adult horses, a white hair coat. Gray horses, including Lipizzans, are born dark—usually bay or black—and become lighter each year as the graying process takes place, with the process being complete at between 6 and 10 years of age. Lipizzans are not actually true white horses, but this is a common misconception.[2] A white horse is born white and has unpigmented skin.[5]
Until the 18th century, Lipizzans had other coat colors, including dun, bay, chestnut, black, piebald and skewbald.[2] However, gray is a dominant gene.[5] Gray was the color preferred by the royal family, and so the color was emphasized in breeding practices. Thus, in a small breed population when the color was deliberately selected as a desirable feature, it came to be the color of the overwhelming majority of Lipizzan horses.[6] However, it is a long-standing tradition for the Spanish Riding School to have at least one bay Lipizzan stallion in residence, and this tradition is continued through the present day.[7]

That movie is Crimson Tide starring Gene Hackman and Denzel Washington, and it is a masterpiece.
I’ve seen U 571, which is outstanding, but not Hunt, I’ve always missed that one for some reason.
But yes, I can understand where he is coming from.
It the same as me watching movies filmed in and around New Orleans, because it seems like they go out of their way to get every, single thing wrong.
I didn't know any of that. I love horses. I've had a very precious chances to ride them in my life, and I loved it each time. I also get to walk my dog past some horse fields aorund here which is great!
As far as I Lipizzans go, I've never actually seen one, and looking at this picture here, that is one beautiful horse. Wow!
Thanks! I’ll look for it.
