Donald Trump: There’s No Proof Putin Killed Journalists
Trump opined that Putin had not “stood with a gun or taken the blame or admitted that he’s killed”. Hes always denied it. Its never been proven that hes killed anybody, Trump said on ABCs This Week on Sunday.

ABC’s George Stephanopoulos asked about a presumed moral equivalency innate in Trump’s answer, to which Trump fired back: “I’m saying, when you say a man has killed reporters, I’d like you to prove it”.
“He’s going to allow Trump to do that, and in the process of that he’s going to get a lot of what he wants”, Rojansky said. I think that we can do things with Russian Federation that are to our advantage, ” Trump said. “I haven’t seen that”, he added. “So, you know, you’re supposed to be innocent until proven guilty, at least in our country”, Trump added. In July, he said that if he were elected president, “I think I would just get along very well with Vladimir Putin. Who did he kill?’ [They say, ] ‘Well, we don’t know, but we hear that.’ I said, ‘Tell me, who did he kill!?'” Ever since the exchange between Putin and Trump began, many commentators have noted that Trump’s reaction has been most unusual given that most of the other Republican candidates- and Republican Party members in general- prefer to maintain a distance from and a conservative view on the Russian president and the Kremlin.
Trump then said, as he charged last week, that Democratic presidential front-runner Hillary Clinton killed “thousands and thousands, and even hundreds of thousands of people” with her supposedly “horrible, awful decisions”.
But Trump maintained at his Monday-night rally in Grand Rapids, Michigan, that it was a “good thing” for Putin to call him “very talented”, among other things. Have you been able to prove that?
Is it possible Putin had nothing to do with any of those 56 murders of journalists?
In Trump’s world view, that simplistic formulation is reason alone to accord deference and esteem to Vladimir Putin – never mind that the Russian president is an autocrat whose popularity at home rests in no small measure on having silenced critics whose views, were they allowed a public airing, might put a crimp in his approval rating.
“If Russia wants to bomb the hell out of ISIS and join us in that effort, I am absolutely fine with it”, he said.
DONALD Trump has defended criticism over his growing relationship with Vladimir Putin, saying he is “making mincemeat” of Barack Obama. Marco Rubio of Florida, said during an appearance Sunday on CBS’s “Face the Nation” that Trump “shouldn’t be honored” by Putin’s words.
