Really? If Hugh Blewitt is the best, what's that say about the entire lame stream media?☺

A one-minute excerpt from MSNBC, where Trump calls in and makes his "third-rate" comment. Skip past the first 30 seconds to hear Trump speak.
Trump if not careful could step in like Hilda did with Russert and it was over for her

At least he probably knows they are Islamist terrorists and will call them that, I hope.
“Mr. Trump, do you mean to say that you cannot name the average monthly rainfall amount in the Amazon river basin in the year 1958? (Hewitt’s jaw actually hits table ... recovering): “This ignorance on your part demonstrates appalling disregard for the Earth and is absolutely astonishing, you swine why I oughta ... “.”
LOL
I would say I only remember the names of those that deserve the respect of being called by name. Otherwise, I call them Islamist scum.
Hugh Hewitt is Megan Kelly on steriods—He better be ready for the “Gotcha” Questions he will serve up—and be ready to counter attack the Media like old Newt did years back. “So Mr. Trump, when did you rape your wife last?” and “What is the 24th Surra of the Koran?” “Do you get on your knees and pray to your god of Hate each Night?” “ Who was the second president of Trukey?” “Why are you so ill informed?” “Do you still think Our Great Leader Obama was born in Kenya?” “Why do you hate Obama—isn’t it because he’s BLACK?” Trump better be ready. Now that he signed the pledge they will be gunning for him.

Actually, he is the opposite of Megyn Kelly. Megyn Kelly threw him a softball that he wanted to get asked. I have a question for you: why should Trump not have to face all the same questions and challenges other candidates do? Why should he be completely unvetted?
“Gothchas” are usually considered to be questions that have no apparent right answer, ie, “Have you stopped beating your wife?”
Difficult questions have answers, although I thought Trump did pretty well by admitting that he didn’t have the names down and would have to rely on experts for briefing and policy. Once he gets that down smoothly, he’ll do better with difficult questions that he doesn’t know the answers too.
Unvetted? Like Obama? NO! Real questions not memory tests and other Gotcha Questions like they did Bush and Dan Quail—Poor Day looked like an idiot when they were done with him. They will target Trump the same way. They didn’t do this to Obama or any Liberal. Mitten got this treatment and is America better for another four years of Obama?
The correct answer is, “ They better know and respect my name.”
Trump is the new Obama.
I'm sorry, but a real estate developer that wants to be president should at least know the difference between Hamas and Hezbollah. And one who says he will "deal" with Iran deal should at least have an idea of how that deal will influence and embolden the Quds force and other Iranian terrorist proxies.
Trump's constant need to attack and belittle anyone he thinks has made him look bad says much more about him that about the interviewer. It makes him look petty, vindictive and unstable, not exactly traits I want in the president - we have seen enough of that in Obama, and see it also in Hillary.
BS. Hewitt was not asking about obscure terrorists unknown to anyone but the intelligence community. He specifically asked about the heads of the biggest terrorist organizations out there - Hezbollah, al Queda, ISIS, etc. Maybe the average LIV would not know who these people are, but someone wanting to be president SHOULD - these groups are threats to the US.
So you don’t think someone wanting to be president should have any meaningful knowledge of the threats to the US coming from the Middle East until AFTER he is elected?
Obama thinks ISIS is a JV team.
So... do you think any of the other candidates KNOWS the names of all the terrorist leaders ?
The top military commander of the biggest terrorist country in the world - the one dedicated to our destruction?
Yeah, I think any serious presidential candidate know who Suleimani is. Anyone, candidate or not, paying attention to the issues and players does. Especially when Suleimani met with Putin in Moscow a few weeks back.
You’d think The Donald would, especially after he was asked specifically Suleimani in the debate. Even after that he didn’t do his homework.

As long as his supporters let him get away with blaming the questioner when he doesn’t know the answer, he’ll continue his Don Rickles routine.
