Billionaire Donald Trump, who is the US Republican presidential candidate, criticized American foreign policy and American journalists in an interview broadcast by RT America. Answering the question of Larry King, the presenter, that he was most surprised at the election campaign, the businessman said that it was media dishonesty.

“The media turned out to be incredibly dishonest,” Trump said. He explained that journalists take his statements, and then edit them and distort the meaning. “Suddenly, everything does not look as wonderful as it was when it was pronounced. The media is terribly dishonest. Obviously, not all, but terribly dishonest ", - quotes the presidential candidate RBC.

Iraq’s catastrophe

Trump also raised questions about the election campaign, the US invasion of Iraq and the alleged hacking by Russian hackers of the Democratic Party databases. In particular, he said that his Democratic rival Hillary Clinton does not have the ability to bring back greatness to America. According to Trump, Clinton has no presidential spirit, and he noted that we are not talking about his personal dislike. “I would like it to show brilliant work. We would not have all these problems then, and I would not have put forward my candidacy ”, - cited his Russian site RT.

The billionaire called the entry of American troops into Iraq a mistake and a catastrophe. According to him, $ 6 trillion was spent on the war in Iraq, for which "we could rebuild our country twice."

On the influence of Russia on the upcoming elections

Asked if he believed the reports that Russian hackers had hacked the Democrats' databases to influence the electoral process, Trump said he did not believe. “I think it is most likely unlikely. I think that maybe the Democrats are all arranged. Who knows? But I think this is very unlikely. ”

King also asked Trump about the words of Vladimir Putin, who in an interview with Bloomberg rejected the involvement of the Russian authorities in the hacker attack on the Democrats' databases, but called the content of published leaks important for the public. “I have no opinion on this issue. I don't know anything about that. I don't know who hacked. I'm not sure. You are saying. And who hacked? Who conducted the hacker attack? ”Trump said.

Business Edition of The Wall Street Journal markedthat the interview lasted 10 minutes and ended abruptly when the connection with Trump was cut off, with King looking embarrassed.

Later Trump spokesman Jason Miller said, that the conversation with King was broadcast on tape, adding that "Mr. Trump would not agree to be interviewed by RT."
