I'd like to see him point Syria out on a map. I seriously doubt he could do that. NWCorona Sep 2016 #10

He knows now. Too bad he wasn't the one asked. Now he has a heads-up that he should know that information. I think he will proudly boast that he does too.

he couldn't find any site that's been in the news lately on a map. Perhaps Paris and London, but Ukraine? Really? He didn't even know the Russians had invaded. It would be fun to watch him pacing around looking for Aleppo on a world map.

I hear he loves the city of Belgium!

They should give him a trivia test at the beginning of the debate, or maybe ask him to identify countries on a map...you know, just to establish what it is he does know so they don't waste time asking about the things he doesn't know.

How can you expect him to memorize silly facts, when you know he will hire the bestest, smartest, most goodest, top drawerest, fantasticest, advisors and people on this whole flat earth?
