Trump keeps falsely claiming allegations of Russian hacking only came after he won election

President-elect Donald Trump again falsely accused the Obama administration of waiting until after Democratic presidential nominee Hillary Clinton lost the election to "complain" about Russian hacking.

A recent CIA assessment, according to reports, concluded that Russia interfered in the election to help Trump's presidential bid.

"If Russia, or some other entity, was hacking, why did the White House wait so long to act?" Trump tweeted Thursday morning. "Why did they only complain after Hillary lost?"

The government did actually accuse Russia of hacking the US before the election. The US Department of Homeland Security and Office of the Director of National Intelligence released a letter formally accusing the Russian government of hacking Democratic Party organizations in order to "interfere with the US election process."

For Christ sakes Drumpf the topic came up in the debates. I know you love the stupid but I don't think you can lie continuously without most people eventually catching on.

working the Media in order to gain the high ground on this issue. So much evidence pointing to the who what and where these hacks were coming from and the press was complicit in the coverup. Now we see the Revisionist Story Line emerging. And the Press is more than eager to promote the new Story. This will change as the Public Opinion ebbs and flows. Key to watch,Morning Joe,WSJ,and MSNBC /Mrs Greenspan.

Whatever works, ya know? Not that the faithful would doubt him, no matter what. Hell, look at the front page of DU -- approval of Mr Putin is UP since it has been revealed he interfered with the election.
