President Trump gave an interview to Bill O’Reilly of Fox News in which he commented on Russian president Vladimir Putin:
TRUMP: “I do respect him, but I respect a lot of people. That doesn’t mean I’m going to get along with him.”
O’REILLY: “But, he is a killer.”
TRUMP: “There are a lot of killers. We’ve got a lot of killers. What do you think? Our country’s so innocent?”
The interview will air just before the Super Bowl.
