Trump thinks Russia didn't interfere in the election. An FBI official just said it did.

Trump may want to chat with this guy.

President Donald Trump still isn’t convinced Russia tried to influence the 2016 presidential election and tilt the scales in his favor, deriding it as an excuse perpetuated by Democrats for losing in November.

He might want to talk to Bill Priestap, the FBI’s assistant director of its counterintelligence division, who just told the Senate Intelligence Committee that Russia had mounted a sophisticated effort to undermine public confidence in the election — and to specifically hurt Hillary Clinton and help Trump.

“I think the primary goal, in my mind, was to sow discord, and to try to delegitimize our free and fair election process,” Priestap said. “I also think another of their goals, which the entire United States intelligence community stands behind, was to denigrate Secretary Clinton and to try to help then — current President Trump.”

Priestap is referencing a January report in which three US government agencies — the FBI, the CIA, and the National Security Agency — said Russia tried to give Trump a boost.

1. Loser 45 doesn't even ASK about the allegations

He announces it's FAKE NEWS or Democratic excuses, without even showing the slightest interest in being informed by his own intel and justice people

LOSER!

2. Trump won't acknowledge that he needed Russia's help to beat Hillary.

He knows damn good and we'll that they interfered. I won't be at all surprised to learn that his campaign was involved in some manner.

3. Notice how the so called

News Media will not go there! They gave the GOP some 5 Billion in free Promo's and with Russian Cyber Meddling you think for one minute they will admit they screwed the pouch.

4. *45 firmly believes that any actions were merely expressions of international support for him...

His royal pompous-ness likely has figured out that Vlad is not your average political kleptokrat...
Rather, he is an experienced extortionist....

*45 negotiated himself into a Quid pro Quo that requires he keep on giving to uncle Vlad...

What may have started off as a simple QPQ transactional deal:
Election outcome & some Rosneft shares distributed around to satisfy all the creditors
in exchange for sanction relief & a friendly WH

With the potential for some additional really "great" deals...

Has turned out actually to be
a choice between Polonium Schnopps and
Asset Forfeiture & NY State mandated lodging.

5. Listen closely to the president's pronunciation

He states that "Rusher" didn't interfere with the election. He's clearly referring to defensive tackle Aaron Donald, who has never been involved in any election fraud.
