Trump would pwn Palin in a debate

[^_^ 5,021]

"I've read hundreds of books about China over the decades," Trump told Xinhua, the official news agency of the People's Republic of China.

...

Asked to name any of his favorite tomes on China, Trump reportedly listed the following 20 books right off the top of his head.

1. "The Party" by Richard McGregor

2. "On China" by Henry Kissinger

3. "Mao: The Untold Story" by Jung Chang

4. "Tide Players" by Jianying Zha

5. "One Billion Customers" by James McGregor

6. "The Coming China Wars" by Peter W. Navarro

7. "The Beijing Consensus" by Stefan Halper

8. "China CEO" by Juan Antonio Fernandez and Laurie Underwood

9. "Poorly Made in China" by Paul Midler

10. "CHINA: Portrait of a People" by Tom Carter

11. "The Man Who Loved China" by Simon Winchester

12. "China Shakes the World" by James Kynge

13. "Mr. China" by Tim Clissold

14. "Country Driving" by Peter Hessler

15. "The Dragon's Gift" by Deborah Brautigam

16. "Factory Girls" by Leslie T. Chang

17. "The Heavenly Man" by Brother Yun

18. "1421" by Gavin Menzies

19. "Seven Years in Tibet" by Heinrich Harrer

20. "Battle Hymn of the Tiger Mother" by Amy Chua

That's quite a difference from when Katie Couric asked Sarah Palin in 2008 what magazines and newspapers she reads:

Couric: And when it comes to establishing your world view, I was curious, what newspapers and magazines did you regularly read before you were tapped for this to stay informed and to understand the world?

Palin: I’ve read most of them, again with a great appreciation for the press, for the media.

Couric: What, specifically?

Palin: Um, all of them, any of them that have been in front of me all these years.

Couric: Can you name a few?

Palin: I have a vast variety of sources where we get our news, too. Alaska isn’t a foreign country, where it’s kind of suggested, “Wow, how could you keep in touch with what the rest of Washington, D.C., may be thinking when you live up there in Alaska?” Believe me, Alaska is like a microcosm of America.

File this away if Trump and Palin ever square off in a debate.

The ham and turkey sandwich that I am about to consume for lunch would pwn Palin in a debate.

Who could forget Katie Couric's excruciating interview with Sarah Palin in 2008 when the then-vice presidential hopeful was unable to name even one newspaper? You might think after such a reputation-dashing incident, Palin would have swotted up on her media knowledge. But not so, according to some short footage that has emerged from the MSNBC White House Correspondents Dinner after party.

An NBC reporter asked a number of celebrities, newsmakers and Palin to name who they think is the most influential journalist today. "Um, gosh, that's a great question, I have to think about it, OK? Because there are many," responded Palin, after turning to husband Todd for his thoughts (to little avail).

It was not until she bumped into FOX News buddy, Greta Van Susteren, while walking away from the camera that Palin could think of a journalist to name. That's right, "Greta Van Susteren is the most influential journalist!" she shouted. Hmm

Sad thing is that she has a degree in journalism

Just for fun, I'd like to see Trump as Secretary of State.

I watched the vid for that yesterday and lots of respondents before her answered similarly. Many of them journalists themselves. I wouldn't read too much into that.. it was a party, not a campaign event.
