The media must kill Gary Johnson because he takes more votes from Hillary than Trump.

I’m thinking that Johnson’s little gaff isn’t going to amount to much at all as far as rearranging the furniture. It will be forgotten in less than a week.

Exactly. 99.9% of all “Democrats” with a “college education” don’t know what the heck Aleppo is. LOL! Barnicle Bill went a little overboard on this one.

At least he didn’t ask, “what’s up with that dog food brand?”

Who gives a rat’s ass about Aleppo?

Seriously, it’s not our problem.

If Johnson had a decent prep team, they would have trained him to respond to such trickery with “Where did you get that? Did you fabricate or plagiarize again, Mister Barnicle?”

I’m not voting for the guy, but he actually comes off sympathetic here. It felt like a deliberate takedown. Why not just ask him about Syria? Are we to believe the majority of the Morning Joe audience is so urbane as to be familiar with a specific area in the country?

Barnicle: "What would you do if you were elected about Aleppo?"

Johnson: "Nothing. I would continue to give them Purina like I always have. WTH does that have to do with the Middle East anyways?"

They must be reading the polls showing Johnson hurting Clinton more than Trump.

That's a no-brainer.

Johnson or Stein would make a fine choice for all those BernieBots, whose candidate would have been nominated, if the DNC hadn't shafted him.

This! You will see the Libertarian candidate attacked by the MSM far harder than they have ever been attacked before. Its just the beginning.

Remember when GWB couldn't name the president of Pakistan? The questioner was another hack journalist from Beantown.

Johnson voters are too mellow to care and he acts as a vote sucker against Clinton.
