I asked caller John how he would defend Trump flip-flopping on whether he has a relationship with Putin or not.

John says the word “relationship” depends on the context in which it is used.

Jason, from Bainbridge Island, says Trump does have a relationship with Putin. He says these are two men who have big respect for each other and he thinks they can make deals together.

Russell, on the Khan controversy, says Trump does put his foot in his mouth but says he will listen to the quality people he will surround himself with.

Make your vote for best spokesperson on my Facebook page.

And here’s the entire segment of callers auditioning to be a spokesperson for Trump.
