During Wednesday’s Commander-in-Chief forum, Trump was asked by NBC’s Matt Lauer whether he was comfortable praising and being praised by the former KGB agent turned president of Russian Federation.

“I think when he calls me brilliant I’ll take the compliment, ok?” added the businessman.
If we had a relationship with Russian Federation, wouldn t it be wonderful if we could work on it together and knock the hell out of ISIS?
Trump responded to the controversy by remaining true to his brand, which is to do basically the opposite of what any rational presidential candidate would do.
Meanwhile, Democratic contestant Hillary Clinton said she regretted her decision as USA senator to back Iraq War, further adding that Trump was also the supporter of the controversial war. Trump has downplayed the severity of the intrusion and even invited – sarcastically, he claimed – Russian Federation to hack Clinton’s own emails.
Since Republican leaders have failed, it is up to us, the American people, to save America by voting against Putin’s man Donald Trump.
Vladimir Putin doesn’t have that.
“Under my administration, there will be no pleading for meetings with Vladimir Putin. He is acting like an adversary”. I hope that if they are doing something I hope that somebody’s going to be able to find out so that they can end it, because that would not be appropriate at all, ‘ Trump said.
“I’m not going to stand up here and do a tit-for-tat on what Donald said last night”, Ryan said.
Clinton said she regretted her decision as a USA senator from NY to vote in favor of the 2003 Iraq war and said Trump had been in favor of it as well.
Following a speech at the Ronald Reagan Presidential Library in Simi Valley, Calif., Pence said he thinks “it’s inarguable” that Putin is the stronger leader.
“And, you know, the attractive part of getting along, Russian Federation wants to defeat ISIS as badly as we do”.
Clinton challenged Republicans to denounce Trump’s comments.
Clinton said she was “heartened” by recent articles pointing out the “disparate treatment of Trump’s campaign compared to ours” by the media, implying that her campaign was receiving far more scrutiny from the press.
In the forum, Clinton and Trump diverged on whether the U.S. should deploy ground troops to Iraq.
“She made a awful mistake in Libya”, said Trump.
“It’s concerning that Donald Trump was potentially sharing information that he learned in his briefing”, Mook said on Good Morning America.
“We made the world safer”, she said. On a practical level, it would involve massive infrastructure, many years on the ground with large numbers of troops. “Of course, Trump hasn’t thought through any of that”.
