> interviewer: what do you think about putin? donald trump (ai): putin, he's a great guy, a real winner. i've always had tremendous respect  for him. he's a strong leader, a powerful man, and he knows how to get  things done. believe me, nobody knows more about getting things done than  putin. i mean, russia is a big league country, one of the biggest, and putin has  been able to make it great again, just like i've made america great again.  we need to stand strong with him, we need to be allies, we need to make  sure that our two countries are working together, not against each other. and let me tell you, putin is a fighter, he's a real battler. he won the  cold war all by himself, without any help from us. i mean, that's  incredible, just incredible. and now, with russia, we're doing great  things together. we're building a beautiful wall around europe, and nobody  knows more about beautiful walls than putin. now, i know some of the fake news media is going to say, "oh, trump is  being too nice to putin." but let me tell you, folks, putin is a nice guy.  he's a real gentleman. and we need to treat him with the respect he  deserves.
