Obama on Trump: He has ‘outright wacky ideas’

“And it just seems to me that what they said President Obama and Hillary Clinton and John Kerry, who is another total disaster, did exactly the opposite”.

Clinton said Trump’s praise of Putin as a better leader than Obama was “not just unpatriotic but also scary”.

Mr Trump and rival Hillary Clinton had taken questions from military veterans.

“I don’t think the guy’s qualified to be president of the United States, and every time he speaks, that opinion is confirmed”, Obama told a news conference.

“The consequences of when you do it the wrong way are innocent people get hurt, and you have a bunch of unintended consequences that don’t solve the problem”, Obama said.

Especially when it comes to meeting with foreign powers, “you actually have to know what you’re talking about”, the president said. “When you speak, it should actually reflect thought out policy you can implement”, added the USA president.

Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump told a Russia-funded television network Thursday that “it’s probably unlikely” that Russian Federation is trying to influence the USA election. Trump slams “lies” about Iraq war stance MORE’s criticism of his leadership, expressing confidence Americans would oppose the Republican presidential nominee and his “wacky” ideas on Election Day. “And I think I would have a very, very good relationship with Russia”, Trump said at a “commander in chief” forum on the decommissioned USS Intrepid, now a floating museum, here yesterday.

“If he says great things about me, I’m going to say great things about him. Because it suggests he will let Putin do whatever Putin wants to do”. “There was scant optimism”.

Trump quickly abandoned Lauer’s entreaties to avoid attacking his opponent and focus on what he would do if elected president in November. The New York Times pronounced that the “consensus afterwards was not kind”.

Russian Federation has become a political wedge issue for Mr Trump-even amongst his own party.

Trump did little to counter the criticism that he lacks detailed policy proposals, particularly regarding the Islamic State group. Vox was among those pointing to a 2002 interview with radio host Howard Stern that contradicts this. She reiterated that she had made mistakes in relying on a personal email account and private server as secretary of state and in voting for the 2003 invasion of Iraq as a senator.

Now, it’s a very different system, and I don’t happen to like the system. “Always have, always will”.

He also argued that Moscow wanted to destroy Islamic State (IS) militants as much as Washington does, and repeated his intention to work with Russian Federation to defeat the group in Iraq and Syria.

“With the Clintons, it’s all about the money”, Upshur said. Miller said Clinton “failed” at the forum, claiming she was unable to “answer for her awful foreign policy judgment”. The candidates will face off for the first time on September 26 at Hofstra University.
