“She’s threatening Russia, specifically Putin.”
If you were a military planner for one of our global enemies/rivals, and someone who is married to a former US President tells you how much time it will take for a nuclear response, the first thing you’d do is use that information to figure out how far from our coastline or border you’d have to be in order to launch a first strike that would take out command and control within that response-time gap. It’s highly irresponsible of her to have made these comments at all, let alone start a Twitter conversation about them. She’s unfit to hold any position of power.
Actually I think Russia, China, etc. are well aware of our nuclear response times. What I think Hillary was doing was indicating to Putin that she is willing to play with the concept of nuclear war - that she's not afraid of going there, and that, therefore, he better watch out. She's like a 13 year old girl saying "I'll do it, I really will!"
What Putin sees is her horrifying level of immaturity, and therefore, insanity.
And he makes plans to defend himself from the clear and present danger she represents to Russia - and the world. And he's discussing that RIGHT NOW with the leaders of many, many other countries.
Hillary wanted to convince him she's serious.
She did.
