Didn't quite work that way with George W. Bush, now did it? Knowing that having only clowns running for US President is putting the world on edge, (considering the US is a trigger happy nation that has nukes, and is the only one to have used them... Twice!)
Libertarian presidential nominee Gary Johnson told MSNBC's Andrea Mitchell on Tuesday that being able to "dot the I's and cross the T's on foreign leaders and geographical locations" allows leaders "to put our military in harm's way."
Johnson was responding to questions about his recent foreign-policy gaffes, including one last month, in which he asked "What is Aleppo?" when asked about the war in Syria, and another in a more recent conversation with Chris Matthews when he could not name a single world leader he admired.
"You know, when it comes to talking about a foreign leader that you admire, I have a hard time with that one," Johnson told Mitchell on Tuesday. "That's politics. That's just who I am ... maybe I think too much."
Mitchell responded that Johnson was running to be commander-in-chief and that knowing how to answer such questions was "part of the portfolio."
Johnson replied that "the fact that somebody can dot the I's and cross the T's on a foreign leader or geographic location then allows them to put our military in harm's way." Cont. (Video)
