The moment where Velshi asks Schultz why economic inequality is present in other countries, like Britain and Germany, if it’s all to do with Democrats and Republicans, is pretty wonderful. Ol’ Howie has not a thought in that head of his there. Velshi has gone somewhere he cannot follow, logic-wise. Other... countries? Global... inequality? Ger....many?

Schultz, of course, as all of these dumb guys do, pivots back to “leadership.” In response to a question about economic inequality, he said: “I am talking about the lack of leadership and understanding of the fiscal responsibility of elected officials to do the right thing for the American people.” Don’t you morons get it? I’m talking about leadership!

“Fiscal responsibility” is neither a direct nor indirect answer to anything about inequality. Neither the deficit nor the debt is the reason for inequality. Of course, even if Howard knew what he was talking about, his ideology would not permit him to answer that question honestly, since that might involve admitting he would rather people like him continue not to pay more in taxes even if economic inequality persists. But I believe, in this moment, poor, simple Howard had no idea what was happening. He just doesn’t get it.

I’m not here talking about all these countries, I’m talking about America!, he protests, because you see, he’s running for president of America. Leadership! Fiscal responsibility! Coffee man! I am the coffee man! I built the coffee house! President! Me president!

Dumbass.
