President Trump is still refusing to go along with the unproven claim "Russia hacked our election." Trump was asked during a joint press conference with Polish President Andrzej Duda early Thursday if he will "once and for all, yes or no, definitively say that Russia interfered in the 2016 election." He would not. Trump responded: Well I think it was Russia, and I think it could have been other people in other countries. It could have been a lot of people interfered. I’ve said it very simply. I think it could very well have been Russia, but I think it could well have been other countries. And I won't be specific, but I think a lot of people interfere. I think it's been happening for a long time. It's been happening for many, many years. Now, the thing I have to mention is that Barack Obama, when he was president, found out about this in terms of if it were Russia -- found out about it in August. Now the election was in November. That’s a lot of time. He did nothing about it. Why did he do nothing about it? He was told it was Russia by the CIA, as I understand it – it was well-reported – and he did nothing about it. They say he choked. Well, I don't think he choked. I think what happened is he thought Hillary Clinton was going to win the election, and he said let's not do anything about it. Had he thought the other way, he would have done something about it. So he was told in early August, presumably by the CIA, that Russia was trying to get involved or meddling pretty strongly with the election. He did nothing about it. The reason is he thought Hillary was going to win. And if he thought I was going to win, he would have done plenty about it. So that’s the real question, is why did he do nothing from August all the way until November 8. Why did he do nothing? His people said he choked. I don’t think he choked. …After 8 or more months, this hoax is finally collapsing. The "17 intelligence agencies agree" lie has been repeated endlessly for almost a year straight. That lie was finally debunked when The New York Times and the Associated Press finally admitted last week it wasn't true.
