Washington (CNN)President Donald Trump appeared to equate US actions with the authoritarian regime of Russian President Vladimir Putin in an interview released Saturday, saying, "There are a lot of killers. You think our country's so innocent?"

Trump made the remark during an interview with Fox News' Bill O'Reilly, saying he respected his Russian counterpart.

"But he's a killer," O'Reilly said to Trump.

"There are a lot of killers. You think our country's so innocent?" Trump replied.

A clip of the exchange was released Saturday and the full interview is scheduled to air Sunday.

It was an unusual assertion coming from the President of the United States. Trump himself, however, has made similar points before.

Trump has said before that he champions assassination as a political method.  What was it he said about 2nd-Amendment type methods regarding Hillary?  https://www.nytimes.com/2016/08/10/us/politics/donald-trump-hillary-clinton.html

And here today (Sunday) he has said in an interview with Bill Reilly that the US is comparable to Russia in political assassinations.  



If Trump has any inside info on any political assassinations here in the US, he has a legal and moral obligation to turn his information over to the police. If he doesn't, he's aiding and abetting.
