December 17, 2015, 05:38 pm Trump calls 'highly respected' Putin's comments a 'great honor'

By Bradford Richardson

“It is always a great honor to be so nicely complimented by a man so highly respected within his own country and beyond,” the GOP presidential front-runner told supporters at a rally in Columbus, Ohio.

“I have always felt that Russia and the United States should be able to work well with each other towards defeating terrorism and restoring world peace, not to mention trade and all of the other benefits derived from mutual respect,” he added.

When Germany gets a 3rd rate military built, get back to me. Until them stay in Berlin.

What is your alternative? Shoot down Russian planes? Start WW III with Russia? Has Russia sent any terrorists on US soil to kill Americans? Whatever happened to the meme that Trump is a hot-head and will not get along with leaders of super-powers?

Trump is an amazing negotiator. Look at the Kluge Winery deal. Love to see those two sitting across the table.

Putin shouldn't be highly respected.

What is your alternative? Shoot down Russian planes? Start WW III with Russia?

LOL. You set up your strawmen and then you knock them down.

It really shouldn't be controversial with all Putin has done, that he should not be respected.

Now if I was president, I would keep the praise in check and I would simply say something like, "I look forward to working with Putin on our mutual interests."

This is how you begin to cultivate a dialogue and some type of relationship as opposed to farting in their face as the Obumbler has done.

Putin must despise the despot, Hillary. Who could blame him for appreciating someone like TRUMP, who can bring bad news with some deadly clarity.

Gotta be some relief for Putin there, to just know where the damn red lines really are.

OTOH, I’m thinking Putin wants no part of TRUMP. Putin may believe an endorsement will hurt TRUMP.

Listen genius, Trump has stayed on top longer than any other genius pundit had expected. Trump is doing just fine. He does not need your advice.

Why bother with the UN at all? The US should get out of the UN and boot the UN out of the US. The UN is one of our enemies... a forum for communists and terrorists.

Why do you say that? Putin would actually RESPECT a leader in Trump. It’s not important to be liked but at least respected. Reagan’s successful rule

Hmmmm. I think I’ve read this somewhere before. Eastasia, Eurasia and Oceania? :P
