I've never taken drugs of any kind, never had a glass of alcohol. Never had a cigarette, never had a cup of coffee.

I love to negotiate things, I do it really well, and all that stuff. But it's possible I won't be able to get along with Putin.

We have an Army that hasn't been in this position since World War II, in terms of levels and in terms of readiness and in terms of everything else. We are not capable like we have to be.

I have no relationship with Putin. I don't think I've ever met him. I never met him. I don't think I've ever met him.

Having said that, I`ve got to tell you, looking ahead, it`s like these storms coming in over the pacific that`s we feel in the press corps.Because you look at a campaign, which was a war on the media - that was at the heart of Donald Trump`s campaign, where if he banned certain outlets from coming to news conferences, every day he attacked the dishonest press, he pointed the finger, he called out reporter by name and attacked him.

I think military is a very special thing.

We all salute, with pride, the same American Flag. And we are equal - totally equal - in the eyes of Almighty God.
