Well, I'm thankful that the Libertarians aren't ruling this country. So, if there is a humanitarian crisis the US shouldn't help. We should not be involved in NATO or the UN. We should build a wall around this country and stick our heads in the ground. Can you name me one successful country that has this kind of foreign policy, where they are not involved in the UN or provide humanitarian assistance?

Yes. The USA from 1789 to 1945.

Hint: "has" and "are" refer to the present tense.

The US was involved in WWI and WWII - 1914 and 1942.

The world was a much different place back then. There is no successful country today that has a complete isolationist policy. Some people are hell bent on taking us back to the 50's or before. No thanks. It was a terrible time for many women and minorities in this country.

I'd take Johnson over Trump because he hasn't said anything that makes me think he is a closet fascist. However, that's a pretty low bar. I will vote for Hillary over either of them.

No, Americans should not care about humanitarian crises elsewhere.

The way MB repeated "ALEPPO" and seared into him with his eyes tells me it was an intentional attempt to expose Johnson for his ignorance.

Um, This is what it means to have Aleppo seared into you:

It means a transparently fake photo staged for political purposes?

OMG -- do some of you people really think that photo was staged? Really???

Yes it was staged. All those "boo hoo hoo poor Syrians" photos are staged.

Do you think photos from the Holocaust were staged too? You know, the giant shoe piles and the emaciated prisoners? All staged?

Yes, the whole of the world has had the wool pooled over its collective eyes. OMG.

Even with a "gotcha" question you can't be "gotten" unless you are ill-informed to begin with. He could have said "Aleppo in what respect?" or "are you referring to the humanitarian crisis in Aleppo?" or "are you talking about the condiment?" Etc. There are lots of responses he could have made other than "what is Aleppo?"

What part of keep classified information on secured servers don't you understand, Hillary???

I guess the only non-gotcha questions are, "Would you like fries with that?"

"I would have the BEST people handle Aleppo. Believe me. We'd be winning when it comes to Aleppo--unlike Obama and Hillary Clinton."

Trump's a businessman: he never admits he doesn't know, and he never apologizes.
