Trump Praises Putin’s Criticisms of the Democratic Party: ‘So True!’

President-elect Donald Trump praised Vladimir Putin tonight for what he had to say about the Democratic party losing the election.

The Russian president weighed in on the U.S. election today and dismissed the cries about Russian hacking interfering with the election.

Putin also said that Democrats are lashing out looking for someone else to blame, adding, “In my view this degrades their own dignity. You have to know how to lose with dignity.”

Well, Trump tonight went ahead and tweeted praise of those comments from Putin:

Vladimir Putin said today about Hillary and Dems: "In my opinion, it is humiliating. One must be able to lose with dignity." So true!
