Having stolen the narrative away from the Democrats this week, Trump is not done yet, doubling down today on his Putin pandemonium<\/strong>…<\/p>\n

As The Hill reports<\/em><\/a>,<\/p>\n

GOP presidential nominee Donald Trump says Russian leader Vladimir Putin is “doing a better job” than President Obama.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\u201cI said he\u2019s a better leader than Obama because Obama\u2019s not a leader,\u201d<\/strong> Trump said in an interview aired Thursday on Fox News\u2019s \u201cFox & Friends.” “He\u2019s certainly doing a better job than Obama is, that\u2019s all.\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Trump stressed improved relations with Russia during the discussion with host Brian Kilmeade.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\u201cNow look, you have to understand, Putin \u2013 if we could get along with Russia, I think that would be a good thing,<\/strong>not a bad thing. We don\u2019t get along with Russia. We practically don\u2019t get along with too many<\/strong>.\u201d<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Trump blamed much of the current tension on Obama, noting Russian aircraft buzzing U.S. military ships.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\u201cYou know why they do that?\u201d he asked. “They have no respect for our leader. They have zero respect for our leader. That\u2019s why they do that.”<\/strong><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

With all the bluster this week about well Obama and the Democrats have done.. “your 401(k)s have recovered”, we thought this was helpful too…<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/strong><\/u><\/p>\n

And Trump’s rhetoric appears to be working…<\/strong><\/u><\/p>\n

<\/div>\n

Despite President Obama’s oration and the “treasonous, traitor” Trump narrative, The Donald has extended his lead over Hillary i<\/strong>n the latest USC\/LA Times poll<\/a> (taken after Obama’s speech) and Hillary’s lead in one state – Oregon – is down to 3 points<\/strong> (where Obama won by 12% in 2012 and 16% in 2008. Dems have not lost there since ’88, but now it’s in play. h\/t @pierpont_morgan<\/em>)<\/p>\n

<\/a><\/p>\n

But tonight is the big night with Hillary speaking… we are sure that will help, right?<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n
