Eh, it's pretty hard to think of a good answer to that question on the spot. The first world leaders that come to mind are all going to be controversial ones which would polarize supporters, like:Putin - Russia Merkel - Germany (surprised Weld picked her) Assad - Syria (kindof) Dutere - Philippines Netanyahu - Israel Obama (lol) To a lesser degree, Shinzo Abe (Japan) My understanding was Johnson got stuck trying to recall the name of the Mexican President he had met. So it was more of a name fail than a leader fail (still a fail, don't get me wrong). Personally the one I would have picked is Justin Trudeau, liked by the people but overall pretty boring so he's not in the news much. Some unusual but valid choices would also be: Pope Francis Queen Elizabeth II Anyway there are three options on the table: 1. A candidate who would say Putin without a moment's hesitation, and it would be true 2. A candidate who would have a well calculated answer in the chamber that was prepared by advisors and does not reflect any personal opinion at all 3. Someone who stops and thinks about the question to give an honest answer, and gets lost If you're trying to discredit the Johnson, gonna have to do better than that! |
