Trump Defends Putin Relationship, Economic Plans at Chicago Event

In a Chicago Economic Club interview on October 15, 2024, Donald Trump declined to confirm if he's been in touch with Russian President Vladimir Putin since leaving office but suggested that maintaining such relationships would be "smart." Throughout the interview, Trump highlighted his close rapport with Putin while also claiming he was tough on Russia during his presidency. He defended his handling of the 2020 election, downplaying the January 6 Capitol riot, and outlined his economic proposals for a potential second term. Trump's plan includes imposing hefty tariffs on imports to encourage domestic production, which critics argue could raise consumer prices and add to the national debt. Trump dismissed concerns about the inflationary impact of his tax cuts, insisting that economic growth would offset costs.
