CNN hosted a town hall with 2024 Republican presidential candidate and former President Donald Trump on Wednesday night in New Hampshire.

Donald Trump refused to say he supported Ukraine to win its bloody war with Russia as he appeared on a controversial live CNN town hall. The one-term president was repeatedly asked by host Kaitlan Collins if he backed Ukraine in its 15-month conflict with Vladimir Putin’s forces, and repeatedly dodged the question. “I don’t think in terms of winning and losing, I think in terms of getting it settled so we stop killing all these people and breaking down this country,” he told Collins when asked about his support for Ukraine. She then asked him again if he wanted Ukraine or Russia to win the conflict. “I want everyone to stop dying. They are dying, Russians and Ukrainians. I want them to stop dying,” he replied. Mr Trump also repeated his claim it would take him one day in the Oval Office to end the conflict. “I’ll have that done in 24 hours, you need the power of the presidency to do it.” And he added: You know what, I will say this, I want Europe to put up more money. They should equalise, they have plenty of money.” And he boasted that the conflict would never even have happened if he had remained in office. “If I were president this never would have happened and even the Democrats recognise that. Putin knew it would never have happened and his pipeline would never have happened, a lot of things would never have happened,” he said. “All those dead people, both Russian and Ukrainian, would not be dead today, and all those cities that are blown up and disintegrated to the ground would not have happened.” Mr Trump also tried to claim that he had “a very good relationship” with the Ukrainian president Volodymyr Zelensky. Mr Trump was impeached for the first time over a call in which he tried to get Mr Zelensky to investigate Joe Biden in return for weapons. “I have a very good relationship with President Zelensky because as you know he backed me up with phoney impeachment hoax number one when he said the president did nothing wrong. I was totally exonerated by the way a total waste of time and money,” said Mr Trump and Collins reminded viewers that the former president had been impeached by Congress. Collins then asked Mr Trump if he still had “tremendous respect” for Vladimir Putin, as he claimed while president. “He made a tremendous mistake. He is a smart guy...they want you to say he is a stupid person, okay, he is not a stupid person, he is very smart and cunning and Putin made a bad mistake in my opinion. “His mistake was going in. He would never have gone in if I was president, we used to talk about it too.” Read More Trump calls Jan 6 a ‘beautiful day’ during combative CNN town hall CNN Trump town hall — live: Trump calls Kaitlan Collins ‘nasty person’ and is considering January 6 pardons Trump calls CNN moderator ‘nasty person’ in tense exchange over classified documents Trump refuses to acknowledge he lost ‘rigged’ 2020 election in CNN town hall event Takeaways from town hall: Trump says sexual assault case was 'fake,' calls Jan. 6 'a beautiful day' The Body in the Woods | An Independent TV Original Documentary The harrowing discovery at centre of The Independent’s new documentary

A defiant former president Donald Trump on Wednesday told a CNN town hall audience that he has never met the woman who a New York jury said he sexually assaulted in a department store dressing room in the 1990s. Asked about the civil verdict against him in a civil suit brought by writer E Jean Carroll, Mr Trump claimed the former Elle advice columnist’s lawsuit was “election interference” and denied knowing her. “This woman I don’t know her. I never met her. I have no idea who she is,” he said in response to the query from moderator Kaitlan Collins. Mr Trump asked Collins if he could “swear by [his] children that he never assaulted Ms Carroll and called her allegations “a fake...made up story”. He also attacked the federal judge who oversaw the case, Lewis Kaplan, as “a horrible Clinton-appointed judge” who allowed Ms Carroll to “put everything in” as evidence over the objections of his legal team. “He allowed her to put everything in. He allowed us to put nothing,” he said.
