About that Hugh Hewitt interview of Donald Trump: It amazes me.
It amazes me that Trumps inability to name the top sheiks of jihad is Page One News to our Twitter-tagged #GOPSmartSet. I do not, however, detect similar alarm over how many of those sheihks foot soldiers, both killers and colonizers, are streaming into borderless Europe, also the USA.
They are too busy with deep analysis of Hewitts pop quiz.
This in itself produces a kind of Eureka moment. Little Picture people deal in factoids. Donald Trump is a Big Picture kind of guy.
I offer Hewitts Trump interview as Exhibit A. According to the radio host, knowing the names of the bosses of what he calls (gag me with political correctness again) Islamist extremism could not possibly be of greater importance. As he put it to Trump: Im looking for the next commander-in-chief, to know who Hassan Nasrallah is, and Zawahiri, and al-Julani, and al-Baghdadi. Do you know the players without a scorecard, yet, Donald Trump?
Of course, such a feat will take anyone about 60 seconds on Wikipedia, so what is really go on here? Hewitt says he is not playing gotcha, and, in a way, I believe him. That is, I think this is really how #GOPSmartSet thinks. (Exception: when theyre dealing with a #GOPSmartSet-approved-candidate such as Ben Carson, who did not know the Baltic countries are part of NATO, no one goes on Meet the Press. But thats another turn of the rigged wheel).

LOL, Trumps timing is a little off, BOR, as usual, is an a$$.
Great clip of Trump and BOR. Shows that Trump enjoys himself and BOR is above it all.
Bump, until all these talking heads repudiate the presidency of W they are nothing but lying hypocritical scum bags. It is about damn time the establishment GOP, the f-ing neocons, faced the fact that they have turned most of this planet into a s###hole.
That does it! How dare you question the Great Donald, savior of this Republic! You should be banned!
I thought I would feel foolish saying that and I was right. Funny how some don't think so.
lol! American Idol? Maybe.
Trump is certainly the Paris Hilton of politics.
Trump’s stature as an incredibly profitable businessman could not have hurt... yeah I know you are an indefatigable Trump panner.
Trump managed to get a fair number of important things right. He had more gravitas than a Paris Hilton.
Davisgate is probably going to get him, however. Unless he changes attitude.
I don’t think Hewitt is smart enough to know that. I think he sees this as his big debut into the big-time and he wants to make a name for himself, just like Kelly MeGYN.
HOORAY Diana West
When a Paris Hilton like candidate is leading everywhere, even in home state of Yeb Bush & Rubio, either Paris Hilton is an astute politician or your wishful thinking is not succeeding. Which is it?
I have been saying all along that liberal Donald Trump cannot be trusted. "Davisgate" is a step in proving me right.
All candidates have flaws. I'm for Cruz and I admit he does. But no one, Trump included, changes ideology overnight. Regardless his faux conservative campaign rhetoric, Davisgate is the real Trump.
The GOPE hasn’t yet realized one truth.....WE ARE LAUGHING AT U. TRUMP TRUMP TRUMP
This morning on FOX Allen West was less kind about the lack of foreign policy knowledge of some candidatesOh wait. "some candidates" must be code for Trump.
It couldn't be any of those other 16 candidates because everybody knows the others are all one man "foreign policy" experts.
Did YOU read the Story?
The Headline did NOT match what was stated in the Story.
Here is the quote. Try again.
>>>This in itself produces a kind of Eureka moment. Little Picture people deal in factoids. Donald Trump is a Big Picture kind of guy<<<
I assume you know that Trump did not write the Headline or the Story, but I should never assume anything around here.
Have a good night, I’m hitting the sack.
So Hewitt somehow knows what the next commander-in-chief needs to know to do his job? It is good to smoke out these smug providers of gotcha questions. I guess that Hewitt is proud that Carly knew the answer and that he got publicity from the Harpies in the media.
Mr. Hewitt is a little league player in a major league world. He is willing to waste our time with trivia because he thinks that he knows his audience. He does not.
One should really read more than the headline before one deigns to criticque an entire article, shouldn’t one.
Did you happen to catch the statement by Donald Trump during the debate where he extolled the virtues of the single payer health insurance systems of other socialist countries?
Was that the BIG picture Trump or the little picture trump?
I’M surprised HH didn’t ask Trump if he could name all 57 states.
