Assuming a nuke attack on the US, is the only person able to order a response the President?

So what if we had a scenario of a nuke going off in the US and Barry reacts exactly as you would expect a Leftist to act: he does nothing but suck his thumb. Even in the face of massive public opinion and even the cretins in Congress pretending to want to strike back. What if he just says no? Is there any alternative course of action?
