On Russian TV, Trump says it’s ‘unlikely’ Putin trying to sway election

“There’s a difference between an interviewer who has questions and one who has knowledge, and Mr. Lauer illustrated it”, wrote James Poniewozik for the Times, suggesting Lauer had demonstrated expertise akin to someone with a “passing knowledge of the morning politics headlines”.

“I think it’s inarguable that Vladimir Putin has been a stronger leader in his country than Barack Obama has been in this country”.

Trump campaign manager Kellyanne Conway told CNN, “A former CNN superstar, Larry King, has a podcast, and Mr. Trump went on his podcast”. “If they are doing something, I hope that somebody’s going to be able to find out so they can end it. Because that would not be appropriate at all”.

Trump, who has often praised Russian President Vladimir Putin, made the comments in an interview with former CNN broadcaster Larry King, whose podcast was aired on Thursday night, September 8, on the RT network, a 24-hour news channel that broadcasts in both English and Russian.

“Let me say this right up front, in a Trump administration our Christian heritage will be cherished, protected, defended like you’ve never seen before”, the Republican nominee said to a rousing ovation.

The interview was striking given that Trump spent Thursday on the defensive over some of his laudatory comments about Russian President Vladimir Putin.

After months of aggressively negative campaigning against Trump, Hillary Clinton is taking a turn for the positive with a new direct-to-camera ad Friday created to highlight her problem solving record. If you are running for president, you should know that.

Trump’s appearance on the controversial television station could exacerbate an already icy relationship with the USA political press.

Russian officials have denied accusations that they were involved in the hack, calling the rumors “absurd”. In addition, the percentage of Republicans who answered that they didn’t know how they felt increased from 15% to 26%. “I want to make sure that I’m ready to tell Donald Trump’s story to the nation”.

Putin has offered kind words for Trump in the past as well. “I have absolutely no opinion on that”.

On Friday, as Clinton began to walk away from the podium at the press conference, she paused when a reporter shouted a question asking that she respond to Trump’s appearance on RT America.

He drew applause for saying that if elected in November, he’d repeal the 1954 Johnson Amendment barring tax-exempt organizations like churches from supporting or opposing candidates for political office.

“No. It’s not about liking or disliking”, Trump said.

The host of NBC’s The Today Show and contributor to Lateline was hosting the NBC presidential forum on Wednesday night U.S. time.

Colorado, Virginia and New Hampshire, three other traditional swing states, appear to be long shots for Trump. “I was totally against the war in Iraq” he said, pointing to a 2004 interview with Esquire magazine glossing over his comment two years earlier to an interviewer when asked if he supported the invasion, “Yeah, I guess so”. Pence called it “inarguable” that Putin is a stronger leader than the US president.

King asked, “You personally don’t dislike her?” In June 2015, Ora announced it was dropping plans to work on a television project with Trump following his controversial remarks about undocumented Mexican immigrants.
