Donald Trump Tells BBC ‘I’m Disappointed But Not Done’ with Putin in Exclusive Phone Interview

EXCERPT:

O'DONOGHUE: "You’ve said you were four times close to a deal with Putin."

TRUMP: "Yeah, I thought I had a deal four times."

O'DONOGHUE: "Are you done with him? I mean, I know that sounds a simplistic thing — "

TRUMP: "No, I'm not done, but I’m disappointed in him. But I’m not done with him. But I’m disappointed in him. No, we had a deal done four times, and then you go home and you see he just attacked a nursing home or something in Kyiv. I said, 'What the hell was that all about?'”

O'DONOGHUE: "Do you trust him?"

TRUMP: "I trust almost nobody, to be honest with you."

O'DONOGHUE: "So how do you deal with someone you can’t trust?"

TRUMP: "Well, it’s not a question of that. It’s like, I’m disappointed that this hasn’t been done."
