May have been Testament.
This is a movie called By Dawn's Early Light. James Earl Jones plays an Air Force General and Martin Landau plays the president. It is about World War III. Quite good.
Sounds like Testament (1983)
It may have been Countdown to Looking Glass (1984)
It is called Special Bulletin, made in 1983. It is quite good. Special Bulletin (1983) (TV)
