The media should include words Trump won't know in their questions. Don't go too far,

but get the thesaurus out to find words that any well educated person would know, but not the most common for the subject. Someone would stump him fairly quickly and he won't be able to bluff it.

His vocabulary sounds like he picked it up watching "Our Gang" and never progressed.

Remember when he was asked about the Quds Force and he started babbling about the Kurds?

There's really no excuse not to succeed in teeing him up for a self-own like that every time he takes questions from the media. He knows nothing about anything, but thinks he knows everything and loves to hear himself talk. The media really ought to plumb the depths of his ignorant buffoonery more aggressively.
