Ryan on Trump’s ‘Killer’ Comment: ‘Comments of Moral Equivalency Do Bother Me’

‘This president believes that it would be better for American national security if Russia started growing in the same direction instead of against us’

EXCERPT:

RYAN: "Yeah, comments of moral equivalency do bother me. Look I don’t want to practice relativism in our foreign policy or in life. And so, I do not subscribe to any notion of the moral equivalency between Russia which is killing people and invading other nations and United States of America. So, yet the whole moral equivalency idea is a notion I don’t like. But like -- it's what I said earlier Willie, this president believes that it would be better for American national security if Russia started growing in the same direction instead of against us."
