Trump: ‘I Think It Is Much Better to Work with Russia’

‘It’s very much better having to do with North Korea where we have a problem that should have never been my problem, should have been solved many years ago when it was much less dangerous’

EXCERPT:

TRUMP: "Just to add to the answer, I think it is much better to work with Russia. It’s very much better having to do with North Korea where we currently have a problem that should have never been my problem, this should have been a problem solved many years ago when it was much less dangerous. But it was given to me along with a big mess of other things. But I will say this, I am for massive oil and gas and everything else and a lot of energy. Putin can’t love that. I am for the strongest military that the United States ever had. Putin can’t love that. But Hillary was not for a strong military and Hillary, my opponent, was for windmills and she was for other types of energy that don’t have the same capacities at this moment certainly. So I just want to say that it’s lot better to work with other countries."
