U.S President Donald Trump calls PM Narendra Modi a \'Great Guy\'

President Trump while addressing a rally in South Carolina quipped that he would never be excited again about crowds after having addressed over 1 lakh spectators in Ahmedabad's Motera Stadium earlier this week. Terming his recent visit to India "worthwhile" he was in all praise for Prime Minister Modi and called him a 'Great Guy'.

"I was with the Prime Minister of India, Modi. Great guy, loved by the people of India. And we had an amazing thing. And I went in, and here's the problem. This is a big crowd. And normally I like talking about my crowds because I get the crowds like nobody, but I just got back from 140 or 50 or 60,000 people and now I'm coming here, I may never be excited again about a crowd after going to India. Think of this, they have 1.5 billion people we have 350 so we're doing pretty well, I'll tell you what, but I love this crowd and I love that crowd too. Tell you they have a great love for ... They have a great love. They have a great leader, and they have a great love for the people of this country. That was really a worthwhile trip."
