MSNBC Panel Baffled By Clinton Campaign Manager Laughing Off Foreign Policy Questions

Clinton Campaign Manager Robby Mook could not for the life of him answer basic foreign policy questions during an appearance on MSNBC on Wednesday.

Here’s a snapshot of how the interview went.

MSNBC: Does Mrs. Clinton think it was a mistake for the president to draw the red line in Syria?

Mook: “The decision was made after she was out of office.”

MSNBC: Was she disappointed the president didn’t act when the line was crossed?

Mook: “You’d have to ask her.”

Geist reminded was forced to remind Mook that he was invited on their program to speak on behalf of the Democratic nominee.

Mook could only use his default response: awkward laughter.

“She has a clear plan to defeat ISIS,” Mook said, arguing Trump has no plan.

Day one in office, what does she do in Syria? What does she do about Aleppo? The analysts pressed him.

Mook said he is not qualified to answer “new policy questions.” For more information, he directed them to the Clinton campaign website.

“We love you buddy but what are you here for?” Scarborough wondered.
