Chris Salcedo talks about Trump's recent interview with Bill O'Reilly and Trump's admitted "respect" for Vladimir Putin. Chris is worried that Trump, like Obama, is so desirous of Russia's help that he'll abandon American values to repair our nation's relationship with our former Cold War foe. He states that there's no moral equivalency between the United States and Vladimir Putin. Chris believes that to say America is based on conquest, as liberals so often do, doesn't comport with reality.
