Scarborough aghast because Trump asked an adviser why we can't use nuclear weapons

I don't mean to minimize Donald Trump's complicity in the horrible few days he's had, even though it's clear to me that the Khan thing was a Democrat/media ambush. Trump cannot indulge that type of indiscipline if he hopes to win in November. If he hasn't figured out by now that the news media will take any excuse to twist something he does into an massively overwrought hubbub, then someone had better sit down and get it through his head this afternoon. And here's a good example. If you're wondering why Trump doesn't have tons and tons of "experts" advising him on various things, it might be because some of those who have spoken with him have turned out not to be very trustworthy. Apparently someone with experience in international affairs had one such conversation with Trump some months back, and as soon as it was over he ran to self-impressed MSNBC host Joe Scarborough with a take on what had happened.
