Following the Department of Justice‘s charges against Russian nationals last week for allegedly interfering in the 2016 election Trumps sends out a barrage of tweets this morning,
“If it was the GOAL of Russia to create discord, disruption and chaos within the U.S. then, with all of the Committee Hearings, Investigations and Party hatred, they have succeeded beyond their wildest dreams. They are laughing their asses off in Moscow. Get smart America!“
Trump has repeatedly called the investigations into collusion with Russia a “hoax,” but on Sunday, he came up with another tactic,
“I never said Russia did not meddle in the election, I said ‘it may be Russia, or China or another country or group, or it may be a 400 pound genius sitting in bed and playing with his computer. The Russian ‘hoax’ was that the Trump campaign colluded with Russia – it never did!“
Trump also praised Rep. Adam Schiff, the ranking Democrat on the House Intelligence Committee, for placing some blame for Russian interference into the election onto the Obama administration,
“Finally, Liddle’ Adam Schiff, the leakin’ monster of no control, is now blaming the Obama Administration for Russian meddling in the 2016 Election. He is finally right about something. Obama was President, knew of the threat, and did nothing. Thank you Adam!”
Schiff said Sunday morning on CNN‘s State of the Union that the President “claims vindication anytime someone sneezes.”
“I’ve said all along that I thought the Obama administration should have done more … They were very wary of appearing to be putting their hand on the scale of the election…none of that is an excuse for this President to sit on his hands.”
This is looking more and more like Nixon in his last days. Trump is unhinged, more than usual.
