http://thehill.com/blogs/ballot-box/presidential-races/252743-trump-hits-radio-host-hugh-hewitt-for-gotcha-questionssnip:
Donald Trump accused conservative radio show host Hugh Hewitt of asking him unfair questions about foreign affairs in an interview on Thursday.
The host of "The Hugh Hewitt Show said he wanted to focus on "commander-in-chief questions" and asked Trump if he was familiar with General Qasem Soleimani, the leader of Irans Quds Force, as well as other prominent military figures in the Middle East.
Trump initially responded affirmatively, but began to give an answer about the Kurds, apparently confused by the word Quds."
I think I saw this routine on the Benny Hill show.

(62,444 posts)Hugh, there's two kinds of people in this world. There are people who want to learn how to spell all the terrorists' names, and there are people who want to put them out of business so that nobody even remembers their names. I promise you, Hugh, I'm not going to be getting on a first name basis with any of them, but the only name they fear is mine.
I should write for this idiot.

(65,483 posts)He says that on his first day in office, he will impose a tariff on all cars manufactured outside the US. He obviously has no idea that congress has to impose a tariff--or any other tax--by passing legislation. The president does not have that power.

(3,431 posts)Everybody will looovvveee him. If they don't,
they are losers and he will fire them.The constitution
is just another old fashioned piece of paper, which
needs total modernization a la Donald.
He may even quote Jefferson's idea of rewriting it
every generation.
The problem is that most of the repugs voting for him
think that Obama is a muslim.People have been
dumbed down to that level, which we laugh about,
but is actually very scary.
