Scott Walker Dissolves Into Gibberish When Asked About His Foreign Policy Credentials

Scott Walker melted down into a pile of nonsensical gibberish when asked about his foreign policy credentials ...

One sentence is all it took for Scott Walker to reveal himself as the next in a long line of failed Republicans.

Face The Nation’s Bob Schieffer asked Walker what his foreign policy credentials are, and the answer was revealing.

Walker said:

Well, I think as a governor, it’s really ultimately about leadership. To me, in my lifetime, one of the best presidents when it comes to foreign policy was a governor from California. My lifetime, one of the worst presidents when it comes to foreign policy, was a freshman senator from Illinois. So I think it’s not just about past experience. It’s about leadership. As a governor, you have to put a cabinet in place. Hopefully, you pick people who are as smart or smarter than you on any given topic.

I think that’s something that’s required of a successful president is putting people in place, be it Secretary of Defense, National Security Advisor, Secretary of State and others, and then having the good sense to listen to them and to others, chain of command in the military, consulting with the Congress. All of those sorts of things I think are important to the president, and I think a successful governors in either party have to do that every day.

Walker’s answer was a pile of gibberish. His answer listed no foreign policy credentials. Walker’s answer bears a striking resemblance to the answer George H.W. Bush gave reporters when asked about George W. Bush’s lack of foreign policy experience in 1999, “My predecessor, for whom I have great love, affection and respect, Ronald Reagan, had come in having been governor of a state and not having had the various jobs.”

George W. Bush’s administration was a foreign policy disaster for the country. Scott Walker is promising a return to the bad old days of Bush if he is elected. It is also ironic Walker would call President Obama the worst foreign policy president of his lifetime at the same time that Obama is receiving bipartisan praise for the successful raid on ISIL in Syria.

Scott Walker has no foreign policy experience. He is an empty suit who does what he is told. That’s why the Koch brothers love him.

The bottom line is that when Scott Walkers opens his mouth about foreign policy, he shows voters why he is unfit to be president.
