But pressed by Bash on the difference between the two nation’s governments – namely that in the U.S. democracy presidents share power with Congress, Pence acknowledged that Trump was not advocating for a dictatorship.
No one who wants to run for United States president should identify with Russian President Vladimir Putin’s regime, Clinton added.
“If he says great things about me, I’m going to say great things about him”, Trump said, but “it’s not going to get him anywhere”. The Republican candidate again cast doubt on whether Russian Federation was behind the hacking of the Democratic National Committee, a belief at odds with USA intelligence officials. “I think you will probably be rewarded mightily by our press”.
While Trump has leveled similar criticism in the past, doing so on Russian television could draw more criticism from those who have questioned his overtures to Putin, including a number of Republicans. He noted Putin’s high approval rating was at 82% and told moderator Matt Lauer he was a better leader than President Barack Obama. In a November debate, the GOP candidate boasted that he “got to know him very well because we were both on 60 Minutes”.
The Republican nominee issued a list of 10 proposals to “update and upgrade America’s military”, before a speech in which he is expected to call for an end to the military “sequester” and an increase in spending on defense.
‘She put the country – and I mean the entire country at risk in order to cover up her pay to play scandals as secretary of state, ‘ Trump said to a crowd of several dozen inside a school cafeteria. Clinton has spent $132 million on ads, NBC News reported this week, more than four times Trump’s almost $29 million. “I never met Putin”, Trump said, responding to the Democratic National Committee hack and charges the Russians were trying to meddle in USA elections. Miller also told the network that “Trump wouldn’t have agreed to do the interview had he known it would be aired on RT”.
The Washington Post reported that “there is strong evidence that Trump’s businesses have received significant funding from Russian investors” and his son, Donald Jr., has boasted that Russian money “make [s] up a pretty disproportionate cross-section of a lot of our assets”.
“Unlike this President, I will speak frankly about who Vladimir Putin is and what his regime represents”. While he came to that position when the war became hard, earlier on he was more accepting of military action.
But he did say that the military could do more under a Trump administration than it has under an Obama administration when asked why the military would have different ideas under Trump than it does now.
Democratic presidential nominee Hillary Clinton is coming to North Carolina for a rally at a historically black college and to raise campaign funds.
That assertion is contradicted by an interview Trump did with Howard Stern in September 2002 in which he was asked whether he supported the invasion.

Trump said Clinton’s handling of Libya proved disastrous.
