Donald Trump stumbled when asked about the heads of major terrorist organizations who play musical caskets.
there fixed it
Stupid question. The cic does not need to know the inane details of the name of a commander of an obscure force. They need to have the right principles. It’s just the way the elites make it known that they think they’re better than us. I hope his standing in the polls goes up.
BFD. This reminds me of the 2000 debate when Bush couldn’t name the president of Pakistan (Musharaff), and just called him “the general”. Then the second debate Bush dropped so many names of foreign leaders SNL did a skit on it.
No surprise. The press is notorious for such things.
PRESS Question: Mr. Presidential wannabe, who is the deputy mayor of the town of Oblinksy in the Kingdom of Whichistan?
PRESS Reaction: Ahhhh! Horrors, that Presidential wannabe is ignorant in foreign affairs!

This from a press that couldn’t find its ‘rear’ with both hands.
It’s why a President selects advisors to, you know, ADVISE him on the often very minute details before making those domestic and foreign policy decisions. The captain of a ship has folks in the engine room doing stuff there that, while he may be fully capable of them himself, has more vital things on his mind.
What I want is a president who picks his own people – people who, while they may not always agree, have the same basic philosophy, love of the nation and concern for its welfare and safety. Would not that concern be a refreshing change from the traitor now infesting the Spite House?
An example of the other sort was JFK who, after being installed, had to be INTRODUCED TO HIS DEFENSE SECRETARY, Robert “Tie The Troops’ Hands Behind Their Backs” McNamara.
Question: WHO TOLD JFK McNAMARA WAS TO BE HIS SECDEF??? There are many other examples, but I think you get the idea.
Oh, BTW, PAY NO ATTENTION TO THE MAN BEHIND THE CURTAIN!!
A President must know these things. Trump needs to watch the news.
Come on Mr. Trump, I’m disappointed in your answer. You should anticipate these things and have a better answer...especially if Hugh Hewitt is the questioner.
Most candidates stumble on this stuff. They don’t have the option skipping an intel briefing every Monday morning. They should just copy OStumbles and call all terrorist leaders the JV Squad.
I don’t care that Trump didn’t know the general’s name or that he initially lied about it. I do have a problem with him not knowing what the Quds Force is. Its part of Iran 101.
