  • Hugh Hewitt Stumps Donald Trump With Question On Iran�s Quds Force (AUDIO)

    Guys, please read the transcript and listen to the audio for yourself, it's worse than the summary. Even after authorizing this dangerous, high stakes mission Trump got confused by the name of the forces led by the man he just vaporized. Grampa is not well.

    Trump, being interview over the telephone, misheard "Quds" as "Kurds". So what? He was fine for the rest of the interview and sounded sharp and articulate. He just misheard two very similar sounding words. To take this as evidence of mental incompetence is ridiculous.

      But only Quds makes any sense regardless of what he heard. Kurds wouldn't make sense for many reasons, not the least of which the kurds who were mistreated that Trump is referring to are in a country which doesn't even border Iran! Wouldn't you characterize ME politics as "extremely challenging" and should only be attempted by our absolutely best and brightest?

      Believe me or don't but if Obama / Clinton / whoever made a mistake like this I would at least be concerned that they weren't up to the task of navigating this minefield.

        Ya, but....... Who else has done more for Israel, done more for Christians, done more to make America rake again?

        Unlike Obama, who doesn't know how many states make up the United States! Now that was a real whopper of a mistake, unlike the Quds/Kurds kerfluffle.

        He dropped the bomb on the enemy, not a cheese factory, so why the fuss? Cheese kurds are good, Iran bad.

          To be fair to Trump, the interview you've linked to is from years ago before he became President. It's not a recent interview post-insane-assassination.

          Grampa is not well
          True in general. But particularly true with regard to authorizing this insane attack. The man has just made every American less safe. The Iranians will be working out ways to retaliate, and they are surely considering a retaliation against Americans at home not just abroad. Trump's actions mean there's every chance that the average American will suffer from this, in a way that just wasn't a serious possibility previously.

            I swear I didn't mean to do that. It just came up on my twitter feed and I saw that it was from the "4th". Maybe we should just lock or delete this thread then.
