Would somebody translate TrumPutin's response into English, please?

I have no idea what "different league and different world" is supposed to mean, nor how it relates to a criminal assault on a journalist, nor how it relates to an (illegitimate) president praising a criminal for committing a crime, nor how it is supposed to excuse an (illegitimate) president praising a criminal for attempting to stifle an exercise of First Amendment rights.
