Donald Trump says Hillary Clinton 'not smart' for criticizing Vladimir Putin

Source: Toronto Sun

Donald Trump on Thursday criticized rival Hillary Clinton for being too tough on Vladimir Putin, once again raising eyebrows about the Republican candidate’s relationship with the Russian president.

Speaking at a rally in Springfield, Ohio, as he kicked off a daylong swing through the battleground state, Trump took issue with Clinton’s criticism of the Russian leader, who has been denounced in the West for his military assertiveness and anti-democratic tendencies.

“She speaks very badly of Putin, and I don’t think that’s smart,” Trump told a crowd of thousands, noting that Russia has nuclear weapons. “How do you speak so badly of someone?” he asked.

Trump has been criticized throughout his campaign for failing to denounce Putin and repeatedly denying connections U.S. intelligence officials say they’ve found between Russia and recent hacking efforts that appear aimed at influencing the outcome of November’s election.

No wonder Russia wants him to win. Putin can do whatever he wants and Trump will be too afraid to criticize him.

Just because you are stupid enough to unleash the bomb because someone insults you, doesn't mean everyone else is that dumb. Even Putin isn't that dumb.
What a sniveling little coward!
