“We have n’t talked much about the international arena, but, you know, his bromance with Putin. It was actually called that I think by the former prime minister of Australia, who said he saw Trump with Putin and Trump was like, you know, just gaga over Putin because Putin does what he [ Trump ] would like to do: kill his opposition, imprison his opposition, drive, you know, journalists and others into exile, rule without any check or balance, ” Clinton said. “That’s what Trump really wants. ”

Clinton warned that Putin might interfere with the 2024 presidential election in an interview with former White House press secretary Jen Psaki in September 2023.
Prior to this interview, Special Counsel John Durham made a report in May 2023 that concluded that the FBI and the Department of Justice should; never have begun an investigation into the Trump campaign.
Additionally, according to Durham’s report, the FBI was informed by a reliable foreign official that Clinton’s campaign had planned to “vilify Trump by tying him to Vladimir Putin.” ”
