“But this isn’t like somebody that’s stood with a gun and he’s taken the blame or he’s admitted that he’s killed”.

He said: “He’s always denied it. It’s never been proven that he’s killed anybody”. But nobody’s proven that he’s killed anybody, as far as I’m concerned.

He pointed to the “stupidity of” the deal with Iran, complaining that the United States is giving the country $150-B “where you know they’re going to end up being a nuclear power”.

Donald Trump’s praise for and subsequent defence of Russian President Vladimir Putin has earned him the reproach of his fellow Republicans. “Obama doesn’t get along with Putin, ” he said on ABC’s This Week.

ABCDonald Trump.Stephanopoulos then referred to a tweet from 2012 Republican presidential nominee Mitt Romney on Friday, when he pointed out what he called “important distinction” between killings by Russian Federation and the US.

Trump continues to stick by his comments and his views on Putin saying, “I didn’t say anything one way or the other. Obviously that would be a concern, would it not?” “So if he’s happy with it, that’s fine”.
