Trump Breaking News Network -Trump I’m Not Being Tough On Russia Because I Want to Make A Deal.

The president, who joked about sinking Moscow’s spy ship off the Atlantic coast, didn’t say what kind of deal he wants.

President Donald Trump joked that he might order the U.S. military to sink the Russian spy ship traveling south off the Atlantic coast, then later said he wouldn’t, and then said he hoped he would not have to retaliate in any form. Whatever option he chooses, he said, he won’t announce it ahead of time.

“The greatest thing I could do is shoot that ship that’s 30 miles offshore right out of the water,” Trump told reporters in a Thursday press conference. He was responding to questions about his administration’s relations with Russia and to allegations that he had so far responded weakly to evidence of Moscow’s interference in American politics. “Everyone in this country’s going to say, ‘Oh, it’s so great.’ That’s not great. That’s not great. I would love to be able to get along with Russia.”

Trump was referring to the Russian intelligence ship Viktor Leonov, spotted by the U.S. Navy some 30 miles off the coast of Connecticut, as Fox News first reported Wednesday. Its likely interest was the U.S. submarine base at Groton. On Thursday morning, Pentagon officials said the ship was traveling south past Atlantic Fleet headquarters in Norfolk, Va.

The Russian ship’s presence is the latest in a series of military provocations by President Vladimir Putin since the new year. Trump said he did not think Putin was testing him.
