Over the weekend in Mumbai at India Today’s Conclave, former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton said President Donald Trump had “quite an affinity for dictators.”
When asked about the “bromance” between Trump and Russian President Vladimir Putin Clinton said, “Trump does have quite an affinity for dictators. He really likes their authoritarian posturing and behavior.”
She added, “The other day when he heard Xi Jinping was going to abolish term limits he kind of wistfully said, ‘Well maybe we will do that someday in our country.’ So he does have a preexisting attitude of favorability toward these dictators. I think it’s more than that with Putin and Russia.”
India Today Editor Aroon Purie asked, “Do they have something on him?”
Clinton replied, “Well we will find out, we will find out. Follow the money.”
