President Trump on Sunday launched a tweet storm over the investigations by the Justice Department and others into Russia election meddling -- writing that “they are laughing their a---s off in Moscow.”
“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 a---s off in Moscow. Get smart America!” Trump tweeted after a federal grand jury on Friday indicted 13 Russian nationals and three Russian companies for allegedly interfering in the 2016 presidential elections.
The case was brought by Robert Mueller, special counsel for the Justice Department, who is investigating whether the Trump campaign colluded with Russia in the elections. The federal case also argued that Russia has been interfering with U.S. elections since 2014.
Trump also seemed to fire back Sunday at critics who said the indictments show he was wrong in saying Russia didn’t meddle in his 2016 presidential election.
“I never said Russia did not meddle in the election,” the president tweeted. “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!”
