Republican US presidential front-runner Donald Trump is apparently "honored" that Russian President Vladimir Putin considers the real-estate magnate a "flamboyant" and "very talented" man.
"It is always a great honor to be so nicely complimented by a man so highly respected within his own country and beyond," Trump said in a statement, according to Politico.
He continued: "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."

Good start anyway.
Lots of heads just exploded. McCain is having a stroke as we speak.
In before....?
KABOOM!
Putin may be many bad things to some people but he stands for his country, which is something only a handful of our polidiots even think to do.
“Lots of heads just exploded. McCain is having a stroke as we speak.”
McCain had a stroke years ago...
Certainly a better start than Putin and Obama. It’s embarrassing and frankly dangerous to have a President that other world leaders don’t respect.
When Trumps SOS gives Putin another Reset Button, it will be Gold Plated and have the correct Translation on it.
Because winning kudos from neo-communist dictators is so... je ne sais quoi.
Yes. One winner to another winner. Putin has realized Trump is the next President of the United States and might as well welcome him to the fold.
Good to see two powerful Infidels who are aware of the Muslim threat to their countries. -tom
It is ok for you guys. Some people hate Putin to a pathological degree. He is still the leader of Russia and our President should work to have a good relationship with him to move things in the right direction. The problem with the liberals is, they have no right direction compass.
I still hope Cruz wins the primary. But this will neither hurt nor help Trump.
“kudos from neo-communist dictators”
Obama praised him too?
This will hurt Trump with the neocon wing of the uniparty. But they were not voting Trump anyway. They will probably vote for she that shall not be named.
Probably. I do not recognize them anymore. Were they always like this or have they changed?
Hillary called Trump “dangerous” and yet Trump is very diplomatic when responding to the head of another nation. (leaving aside, of course, the fact that Mr. Trump promptly slapped Hillary’s mouth closed after the “dangerous” comment.It was a beautiful moment. Brought a tear to my eye, it did)
Anyway, I think Mr. Trump responded very well to Mr. Putin.
They have always been like this since the days of HW Bush.
lol
russians respect strength, intelligence, integrity, and quality leadership.
obviously, they have no respect for 0bama
Trump’s a man of action and has a track record of achieving what he sets out to do.
that’s something russians can respect
