Clinton suggests Russia working to elect Trump

During her first press conference in 275 days, she expresses concern about the intervention of Vladimir Putin's government in the election.

HAMPTON, Illinois — Hillary Clinton on Monday expressed “a very serious” concern about Russia’s apparent tampering with the U.S. election, implying that Vladimir Putin and the "adversarial foreign power" he governs are actively trying to elect Donald Trump.
“I’m really concerned about the credible reports about Russian government interference in our elections,” Clinton told reporters aboard the maiden voyage of her Boeing 737 “Stronger Together” campaign plane, which the Democratic nominee will share with her press corps for the final 63 days of the campaign.

Snip

Headlining two rallies in two states — and campaigning through a hacking cough she said was brought on by her seasonal allergies — Clinton also attempted a reset with the press. She took more than 20 minutes of questions from reporters aboard her plane, ending a 275-day standoff during which she refused to hold a press conference.
As she flew from Cleveland to the Iowa-Illinois border area for the Annual Salute to Labor Picnic, Clinton told about 40 journalists who traveled with her that it was unprecedented that a “foreign adversarial power” would be involved in the electoral process — or in the hacking of the Democratic National Committee that was revealed in July.


When pressed about whether she believed the Russians were actively trying to elect Trump to the Oval Office, Clinton took a long pause before responding.
“I think it’s quite intriguing that this activity has happened around the time Trump became the nominee,” she conceded.
She added: “I often quote a great saying that I learned from living in Arkansas for many years: If you find a turtle on a fence post, it didn’t get there by itself.”

Great read..more at Link.

Now that Hillary has the "ear of the press", she clearly intends to make excellent use of the flight time between campaign stops.
Smart & strategic...
