“I could stand in the middle of 5th Avenue and shoot somebody and I wouldn’t lose voters,” Trump said at a campaign rally here. After the event, Trump declined to answer when asked by CNN to clarify his comments. The GOP front-runner has repeatedly pointed to the loyalty of his supporters, many of whom tell reporters and pollsters that almost nothing could make them change their mind about voting for Trump in the presidential race. Trump’s comments come as the debate about gun violence in America has taken center stage in American political discourse amid several highly publicized mass shootings. Asked about Trump’s comment after a campaign event in Iowa, Texas Sen. Ted Cruz, Trump’s top rival for the GOP nomination, shook his head. “I will let Donald speak for himself,” Cruz said. “I can say I have no intention of shooting anybody in this campaign.” Trump has joked about killing people before. Last month, he appeared to consider whether he would kill journalists, as Russian President Vladimir Putin – whom Trump defended – has been accused of doing. “I would never kill them. I would never do that,” Trump told supporters in Grand Rapids, Michigan, before reconsidering. “Uh, let’s see, uh?” he said aloud, his voice rising. “No, I would never do that.” -

Officially Putin is now embarking on his last term as president. Powerful forces could get out of control unless Putin comes up with a succession plan or a new political system that allows him to remain as supreme leader supervising an elected president. Last Sunday a new step was taken toward making Putin’s rule one of the longest in Russia’s history. He's already surpassed Leonid Brezhnev, the Communist Party boss who ruled for 18 years between 1964 and 1982. Russia’s rulers who served longer terms were the Empress Catherine (33 years) a handful of tsars and Joseph Stalin, whose exact term is hard to define but who was at the helm of the Soviet Union for at least 25 years. The paradox here is that all Russian leaders have aspired to be masters of time, mostly by foot-dragging, while no Russian reign has ever had defined terms. Very few Russian leaders have had any control over the end of their rule. Their days in power have been limited only by death or by their inner circle’s desire to replace them.

Dear Mr.Putin, who decides when Russia deserves respect? Ask the people of the Crimea, Ukraine and Salisbury in Wiltshire if you treated them with respect. Visit The Hague for a full discussion of the deaths and disappearances of your political opponents. You'd gain respect for that. Unfortunately, your vows are never to be trusted, other than your dedication to the inglorious return of a bygone Empire, ruled by dictators. -

"There has never been a President that has worked as hard as me! My hours are the longest, and my results are among the best. I’ve stopped Eight Wars, saving many millions of lives in the process, created the Greatest Economy in the History of our Country, brought Business back into the United States at levels never seen before, rebuilt our Military, created the Largest Tax Cuts and Regulation Cuts, EVER, closed our open and very dangerous Southern Border, when previous Administrations were unable to do so, and created an “aura” around the United States of America that has led every Country in the World to respect us more than ever before. In addition to all of that, I go out of my way to do long, thorough, and very boring Medical Examinations at the Great Walter Reed National Military Medical Center, seen and supervised by top doctors, all of whom have given me PERFECT Marks — Some have even said they have never seen such Strong Results. I do these Tests because I owe it to our Country. In addition to the Medical, I have done something that no other President has done, on three separate occasions, the last one being recently, by taking what is known as a Cognitive Examination, something which few people would be able to do very well, including those working at The New York Times, and I ACED all three of them in front of large numbers of doctors and experts, most of whom I do not know. I have been told that few people have been able to “ace” this Examination and, in fact, most do very poorly, which is why many other Presidents have decided not to take it at all. Despite all of this, the time and work involved, The New York Times, and some others, like to pretend that I am “slowing up,” am maybe not as sharp as I once was, or am in poor physical health, knowing that it is not true, and knowing that I work very hard, probably harder than I have ever worked before. I will know when I am “slowing up,” but it’s not now! After all of the work I have done with Medical Exams, Cognitive Exams, and everything else, I actually believe it’s seditious, perhaps even treasonous, for The New York Times, and others, to consistently do FAKE reports in order to libel and demean “THE PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES.” They are true Enemies of the People, and we should do something about it. They have inaccurately reported on all of my Election Results and, in fact, were forced to apologize on much of what they wrote. The best thing that could happen to this Country would be if The New York Times would cease publication because they are a horrible, biased, and untruthful “source” of information. Thank you for your attention to this matter. MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN!" Former Republican congressman Justin Amash cut through the noise on X, writing “If anyone else wrote something like this, it would be universally acknowledged that the person is mentally unstable.” -
