The news was the latest in a series of partly contradictory statements by Trump after the summit with the Russian president
Vladimir Putin last week in Helsinki.
Putin denied any interference in the 2016 US presidential election at a joint press conference with Trump. Trump described Putin's denunciation as "extremely strong and powerful", publicly opposing US intelligence estimates that such interference was proven. He has been heavily criticized for this. Several times, the US president then made clear statements or refused them.
Trump repeatedly stated that no one is more "hard" than Russia. The statement contradicts his current course. Although his government has imposed sanctions on Moscow or provided weapons to Ukraine, Trump is not the driving force behind this policy. It also undermines the line of his government again and again – for example, leaving the future of annexation by the open Crimean peninsula in Crimea

US President Donald Trump is internally determined for another term, according to his statements in a new interview. British TV reporter Piers Morgan, who calls himself a friend of Trump, met with the head of state for a discussion in his government Air Force One machine. According to statements published by the tabloid "Mail on Sunday," Trump answered the question of whether he would vote again for the presidential election in 2020: "It's my intention, all of world seems to want it. " [19659006] The 72-year-old man has, since his swearing in January 2017, repeatedly stated that he would not leave it to an end. The fact that the "all wish," however, brushing against Morgan's "strong false news" sentiment, as the journalist commented in his not-so-soberly held experiment, is on board the president's machine – the flying epicenter of world power.
Does he know a politician from the ranks of American Democrats who could take him in 2020 and move to his home instead of the White House? "No," Trump replied. "I do not see anyone, I know them all, and I do not see anyone."
Morgan seems to have something to gain from this perspective – after all, he has deep sympathy for this man, "even though I disagree with everything he says and does". This would probably give him more interviews with the most powerful man in the world, whom he already wants to have "at least 35" – most of them before Trump 's political change. "Our longstanding friendship is the reason I'm the only British TV reporter he talks to."
