Donald Trump Quotes


No puppet. No puppet. You’re the puppet.


Context

Trump had a psychological characteristic that worked to his disadvantage in his political endeavors. He could not abide being criticized or attacked. In this case, some of his proposed policies coincided with those of Russian President, Vladimir Putin, and leaders of his campaign staff had business relationships in Russia. Hillary Clinton, in the the last of the 2016 Presidential debates, had referred to him as “Putin’s puppet”, and Trump blurted out this quotation while she was still talking as it was her turn in the debate.
