Libertarian candidate Gary Johnson must have left his interview at MSNBC feeling pretty silly. When asked what he thinks of the situation in Aleppo by Mike Barnicle, Johnson replied by saying “what’s Aleppo?”
“You’re kidding me,” Barnicle reacted.
“No,” Johnson replied.
Barnicle then explained that “Aleppo is in Syria” and is the “epicenter of the refugee crisis.”
“OK, got it. Got it,” Johnson added. “I do think that it’s a mess. I think the only way we deal with Syria is to join hands with Russia to diplomatically bring that to an end.”
