How is that different than Obama claiming he knew more about policies on any particular issue than his policy directors? http://www.politico.com/news/stories/1

  In context, that seems like a pretty self-aware comment he made when he was interviewing his political director[1] as a warning to the man of his own confidence. But I would agree, Presidential candidate always have a large ego. I was only offering up an example of Trump's mistrust of "all experts" (at least in terms of foreign policy). http://www.newyorker.com/magazine/2008/11/17/battle-plans http://www.newyorker.com/magazine/2008/11/17/battle-plans

    Looking at Trump's comment in context, though, it's hard to argue against the claim that we've made "a mess" of the Middle East.
