silly conclusion....so anybody that knows the price of Cheerios (which varies by state) is qualified to run the country?
LOL. This has been answered many times for you. You can continue to spin it all you want. It shows one thing. That he does not understand what a large number of ordinary people face everyday.

the challenges????? why Cheerios? of all the products in the market, why Cheerios?
Irrelevant as yes, it could be the price of bologna. He still wouldn't have stumbled over the question.
Aside from his not knowing what Cheerios cost, I thought he came across as an arrogant man who has too high an opinion of himself and his qualifications. I suppose all of the candidates are like that, though. He did everything but say "only I can fix our problems".
In all fairness, that's how Trump is and I think it works for him. I saw an article once that said that is the reason he gets things done. He has just enough of an ego that he doesn't buy the line that things can't be done like all the other politicians who promise something, get in office and then don't do it. Moving the Embassy to Jerusalem is the perfect example. 4 other presidents said it should be done before him. Why didn't they deliver? All the other Presidents promised immigration reform and didn't deliver.
But I don't see how being a CEO of a coffee company qualifies you anymore than running a real estate empire. I would argue the latter has more qualifications because he has been dealing with government red tape for his entire life. Shultz knows about coffee beans?
This is a pretty good example of fake news. I have zero clue what Cherrios cost (or how to spell them) since I never buy them.
This reminds me of a question that was asked of someone, I think it may have been Trump about the 'quds.' This is a special forces-type unit in Iran's military. The interviewee started to answer the question thinking he was being asked about the 'Kurds.' Bang, gotcha. Interviewer only made himself look like a fool, in my book.
And yet the question worked to show that he does not understand the challenges.
I'm sorry. What challenge specifically involves knowing cereal prices?
And also, most grocery shopping is done by women. So I'm sure lots of dudes aren't dialed in to cereal prices.
Heck, I am a woman, but we limit our boxed garbage, so no cereal for years. I'd guess 4 or 5 bucks, but it'd be a guess.

Schultz also was owner of the Seattle Supersonics basketball team, and had a big battle with local officials. He wanted a new tax-funded stadium, which he never got. He ended up selling the team (for a $130 million profit) and the team was moved to Oklahoma by the new owner.
That's probably similar experience to what Trump has had to deal with.

He wanted millions from the taxpayers but doesn't think people need a higher minimum wage...........
And this is the guy that is supposed to be attractive to Democrats?

B.S.......should we ask Kamala Harris and Elizabeth Warren
1) how much does a case of Budweiser or Corona cost?
2) a box of Trojan condoms?
3) Mobil 1 Engine oil 1040 5 qt.
4) Die Hard Car battery
5) Prestone 1 gallon coolant/antifreeze
if they can't answer any those questions then they have no clue what a LARGE number of ordinary people face every day.......what's this the price is right? LOL
