When [Vladimir] Putin goes out and tells everybody - and you talk about a relationship, but he says Donald Trump is going to win and Donald Trump is a genius, and then I have people saying you should disavow. I said, I'm going to disavow that?

I don't know that Donald Trump is anything more to Putin than what Lenin called a poleznye durak, a useful idiot.
