Donald Trump says he understands Russia, and in an interview Thursday, he offered a glimpse of where his expertise derives from.
I know Russia well. I had a major event in Russia two or three years ago, Miss Universe contest, which was a big, big, incredible event. An incredible success, Trump said in an interview with Fox News Channel's Bret Baier Thursday night.
The comments came after Baier asked if Trump had ever spoken with Russian President Vladimir Putin. Earlier this week, Trump declined to say if he has ever met Putin. In the interview with Baier, Trump said he still wouldn't say because "I don't want to hurt his confidence."
