CLUELESS: Gary Johnson is grateful 'nobody got hurt' in Chelsea and Minnesota; Update

Following on the heels of Libertarian candidate Gary Johnson’s embarrassing gaffe last week not knowing what Aleppo was, he outdid himself this morning on CNN’s “Reliable Sources” when he said he was glad “nobody got hurt” while discussing the bombings in New Jersey and New York City and the knife attack in Minnesota:

I had to check the tape after; I didn't believe my ears at the time
