Now Trump is saying Putin used N-word and Putin doesn't respect Obama??

Trump has gone over the cliff---

What Did Trump Mean When He Said Putin Used the “N-Word” and Doesn’t Respect Obama

But perhaps even more bizarre was another portion of the event in which Trump made a puzzling reference to Vladimir Putin, Barack Obama, and “the N-word.” Here's the quote in question:

" Putin has said things over the last year that are really bad things. He mentioned the N-word one time. I was shocked to hear him mention the N-word. You know what the N-word is, right? He mentioned it. I was shocked. He has a total lack of respect for President Obama. No. 1, he doesn't like him and No. 2, he doesn't respect him."

Several journalists (including myself) initially took this to mean that Trump was suggesting that Putin had referred to the president using a racial slur. Indeed, the cryptic nature of Trump’s comments suggest that if he wasn’t outright saying this, then it least might have been a dog whistle to some of his more racist supporters. Basically, he may have been intentionally vague in order to be provocative, or to throw some red meat to the worst elements of his coalition.

1. Tell me, Comrade Trump, is THIS why you like Putin so much?

2. I think that this was a way for Trump to call Obama that name.

I may take some time to study Trump's communication style. It is distinctive. It's covertly hostile. He uses generalizations like "everyone says" or "people think," without naming sources, for instance. He also, I think, raises alleged statements and arguments by others to make those statements and arguments without doing so under his own name. "I didn't say it - so and so said it!" Basically, people with this orientation are dangerous, in my opinion - toxic.

Though he twists language to make it seem like he has.
What a phony.

9. First of all why say "the N word"? That sounds like political correctness. I wish

he would just come out and call him what we all know he wants to call him.

Donald Trump: "I said that Putin has much better leadership qualities than Obama"

Wow is about all I can say. What is Trump going to say next - he can't help himself.
