But please, let's make this a national scandal while Trump gets away unscathed with saying much worse.
What a fucking waste of shit this guy is.
I had no idea what the city was called,
I just knew a city was at the center of it right now.
MSNBC is a cancerous piece of shit though for being so rude about his lack of knowledge. "UGH ARE YOU SERIOUS?"

And that goes for Stein and Clinton as well.
They're rude for doing their job as a media outlet, and calling out a candidate for President on not knowing a pretty crucial piece of information related to a conflict that we're a part of in some form? Just cause your candidate of choice is in the wrong doesn't mean that it's everyone else's fault.

As far as stupid shit goes, not knowing what Aleppo is when foreign policy has never been a platform in your campaign isn't even that bad.

It's all about tone. We all know damn well if Hillary asked that they would've been more lenient in their reaction. It would've been a less aggressive "WWHHAATT?!?!?!?!"
Clinton, for as much praise that people think she gets, actually has dealt with a fair amount of negative media since she announced.

I'm gonna kick your ass to Shanghai if you don't shut up.
The guy, quite calmly, said this: "You're kidding."
That's the political statement equivalent of
I think he might have blanked or more likely he he thought something else was being referenced as the way it's pronounced in English can maybe be an excuse. But honestly I think he's just a fucking retard and I'd vote for Hillary a million times over him.
Don’t blame Gary Johnson for his ignorance or his inability to speak to what is happening in a piece of the world that is a cauldron of terror, combat, and refugees. He’s not alone. Neither of the two major candidates—Trump and Clinton—have been asked the same simple question recently: What would you do about Aleppo?Maybe it’s because one is a bit paranoid about the press and the other simply does not care. Hillary Clinton appears tortured, robotic, unable to speak in a straight line and in a permanent defensive crouch when she does find the time to answer a few questions. Trump just lies or makes it up while we shrug our shoulders and treat him like he is still the host of The Apprentice rather than a candidate for President of the United States. We laugh at him, apparently unaware the joke is on us.
Considering your average voter doesn't know what Aleppo is either, I don't see why they would be concerned.

So while you may choose to be ignorant, that doesn't mean Johnson can be as well.Quote from: Ian on September 08, 2016, 08:14:31 PM I just knew a city was at the center of it right now.There's actually a handful of cities "at the center of it", including Damascus, Homs, Aleppo, and Al-Raqqa.
