If you don’t think Donald Trump should be within 100 feet of the Oval Office but just can’t stomach Hillary Clinton, you have the alternative of voting for someone else who shouldn’t be within 100 feet of the Oval Office. Feel better?

Watch the second interview Gary Johnson did this morning, with that steamroller of an interviewer, Mark Halperin. It’s even worse than his Morning Joe flameout.

This little nugget resurfaced this morning on Twitter: Johnson and George W. Bush celebrating their cluelessness as governors back in the day.

Johnson now has a perfectly affable statement out taking it on the chin for the morning’s dual train wrecks. Points for being honest about his foibles?
