Washington (CNN)Donald Trump gave an interview Thursday that aired on a television station funded by the Kremlin, arguing that the Russian government was "probably" not meddling in the American presidential race.

Speaking to Larry King on RT America, which is an arm of government-funded news outlet Russia Today, Trump said it would "not be appropriate" if Russian forces were looking to influence the race, which is suspected by some investigators and has been fanned by Hillary Clinton's campaign as recently as Thursday morning.
He also suggested that the allegation was politically motivated.

1. We know it's the opposite. And plus, how does he know?

[JSup]

2. Oh, well then...

...case closed, I guess.

If Trump says he wouldn't stand aside while manly Putin had his way with America then it must be true!

[JHB]

3. Say, Republicans, how does it feel to have a candidate that...

...gets his marching orders straight from the Kremlin?

4. I'm assuming that blowhard King....

Did not follow-up with a, "based on what?" Question. No surprise.

RT America is ajust a propaganda outlet.

5. A presidential candidate doing an interview on Russia Today!?!?!

There's nothing he could say to make things worse after that last foreign policy farce, and now he does this?

Did his campaign approve such an interview? Good God what an idiot!

A few more weeks of Dumbass Donald and my pet schnauzer could win this election.

6. Probably one of the most accurate things #CriminalTrump has said so far.

What is ironic about this statement is that we should now move on and find the real criminals behind the DNC hack!

7. If Trump says something

the opposite is true is most cases.

8. Trump has embraced and promoted a number of conspiracy theories but

for him to agree with U.S. intelligence authorities is a bridge too far.
