Trump’s ghostwriter:
Trump reveres Putin. He wants Putin's power. He wants to be a dictator. Every American — every American — should be terrified about that.

Hillary Clinton’s response to Trump’s embrace of Putin is appropriate:

What would Ronald Reagan say about a Republican nominee who attacks America’s generals and heaps praise on Russia’s president? I think we know the answer.”
Indeed, we do.
