From the July 14 edition of Fox News' The O'Reilly Factor:

BILL O’REILLY (HOST): I think most Americans would agree with you in both parties, all right, that we certainly haven't handled ISIS the way we should have handled it. Then it becomes a big campaign issue because Trump is going to say I'm going to stomp them into the ground. I'm going to get the war declaration. I'm going to do this I'm going to do that. Short on specifics to be fair. Okay? But he is going to come across and he’s going to point to Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama and say these people can't protect you. They won't protect you. On and on and on. Will that have a direct effect on whether Mr. Trump wins or not?
CHARLES KRAUTHAMMER: Short on specifics? That is entirely empty. We have got to be strong and we have got to be smart.
O’REILLY: Alright, let’s assume that’s true. Answer the overarch question. Is it going to be enough to put him into the White House?
KRAUTHAMMER: I think if you are naïve and a guy says I'm going to be strong, I'm going to be smart but he doesn't say a word about what he is going to do and how he is going to do it, who the enemy is and what the strategy is because he says I don't want to give away secrets. I don't want ISIS to be on guard when I unveil this truly sophisticated strategy. Look, this is spinning on your part by saying short on specifics. He doesn't -- he may have an idea of what he is going to do but he has never told us.
O’REILLY: It's not spinning. It's an accurate statement. He’s short on specifics. You’re a wordsmith.
KRAUTHAMMER: In other words, he’s got no specifics.
O’REILLY: You’re saying no and I'm saying short.
KRAUTHAMMER: Short meaning what? You’re going to make a declaration of war and that's going to end the ISIS threat?
