SNIP............
Unsurprisingly, Trump and his whole team have been dismissive of the assessment, and seem to hope the CIA allegations will simply disappear. In the meantime, theyve been throwing shade at the U.S. intelligence community and blaming everyone but the Russian government, Russian hackers, and President Trumps natural ally Vladimir Putin.
On Fox News Sunday this weekend, the Republican president-elect swatted away the serious questions raised by The Washington Post and the Central Intelligence Agency.
I think its ridiculous...just another excuse, Trump told host Chris Wallace. I dont believe it. I dont know why. They talk about all sorts of things We had a massive landslide victoryin the Electoral College So, no, I dont believe it at all.
As the interview carried on, Trump kept dodging the issue, weirdly claiming that once they hack, if you dont catch them in the act, youre not gonna catch them. Regarding who they could be, Trump was not interested in even entertaining the notion of Russian involvement put forth by intelligence officials, and preferred to blame somebody in a bed someplace.

are going to run out,hopefully before Jan 20. With each passing hour,more and more evidence of how and who were the Architects of this Coup. The players list seems not to end.
Something will pop I am sure,Trump is not able to keep this Reality TV show going much longer.
