Donald Trump says US has lost respect in the world

“You do have a chance of World War III, because our country is not respected any longer”, - Trump said on the Full Send Podcast.

When the host asked him if American citizens should be afraid of a nuclear war, he answered in the affirmative.

“You should be scared because we have incompetent people heading up our country who, frankly, got there through a fraudulent election”, - RIA Novosti quotes Trump’s response.

It's worth reminding that recently the former US president joked that Russia could be bombed by American F-22 fighters, but attach Chinese flags to them in order to blame Beijing and then watch the conflict between the two countries.

Earlier, he assured that Russian President Vladimir Putin is "smart, and our leaders are stupid".
