Well, you think our country is so innocent? the president added.
CNN host Jake Tapper pressed McConnell about Trumps remarks during a Sunday interview.
He is a former KGB agent, a thug, not elected in a way that most people consider a credible election, McConnell said of Putin. No, I dont think there is any equivalency with the way the Russians conduct themselves and the way the United States does. But the Senate Majority Leader refused to rebuke Trump for the remarks.
Look, Jake, I can speak to myself and I have about my feelings for Vladimir Putin, he told Tapper. Im not going to critique every utterance of the president.

I hope your skin isn't as thin as his or it's going to be a long four years.
