Dec. 18, 2015: Trump defends against allegations Putin has ordered the killings of journalists

"He's running his country and at least he's a leader, unlike what we have in this country," Trump said on MSNBC's "Morning Joe." "I think our country does plenty of killing also."

isn't insulting a public official a criminal offense in russia?

It is in most countries on the planet.

Speak ill of the dear leader and find yourself in an unpleasant hole, or worse.

That is the most alarming thing that Trump has done, i.e. taken the "fake news" and "enemy of the people" rhetoric to a new low.

Since taking office he has very obviously chafed against the limits to his power. Run the government like a business hogwash. Governments are not businesses.
