{{Cquote|[Trump]'s dead wrong on both [[World War I]] and [[World War II]]. I won't talk about World War I, but I will talk about World War II where of course he's dead wrong. And also I think he's showing great disrespect to [[Russia]] and to the former [[Soviet Union]] for the enormous price that they paid in defeating the [[Wehrmacht]] in World War II.}}

{{Cquote|[Trump]'s dead wrong on both [[World War I]] and [[World War II]]. I won't talk about World War I, but I will talk about World War II where of course he's dead wrong. And also I think he's showing great disrespect to [[Russia]] and to the former [[Soviet Union]] for the enormous price that they paid in defeating the [[Wehrmacht]] in World War II....The real danger is it just shows disrespect for other people number one uh I think if you're in the in Russia today which is of course the principal remnant state left over from when the Soviet Union collapsed this is deeply offensive. Just think about the sacrifice that Russia/the Soviet Union played to defeat [[Nazi Germany]]. And here you have [[President Trump]] disrespecting that great sacrifice, disrespecting this country. But furthermore, when Trump makes comments like that which are so at odds with the historical record, it really cast doubt or doubts on his judgment. It's truly remarkable that he would make such a foolish statement. Someone who is the president of the [[United States]] should simply know better. And I know that we've reached the point where we just say "Well this is Donald Trump, and you know he just says a lot of outrageous things". He contradicts himself from one day to another, and it really doesn't matter because it's just Donald Trump and everybody understands that. But I don't believe that's true. I think it says a lot about his judgment. And I think it says a lot about whether you can [[trust]] the man because he's saying one thing one day and another thing another day. And much of what he says is simply not true. So if you're a foreign leader, and you're looking at the United States and you're thinking about how to deal with Donald Trump, you have to scratch your head and say "Is he a reliable negotiating partner?" And I think the answer in most cases is no.}}
