He was speaking of the necessity for government projecting strength, not weakness, when necessary.
“That doesn’t mean I was endorsing that,” Trump said. “I said that was a strong, powerful government. They kept down the riot, it was a horrible thing.”
At that time he said "Our country is right now perceived as weak."
He also has said “I think Putin’s been a very strong leader for Russia, he’s been a lot stronger than our leader, that I can tell you,” Trump said. “That doesn’t mean I’m endorsing Putin.”
