Bush: Russia meddled in 2016 United States Presidential Election
Pretty clear evidence Russia meddled' in United States 2016 Presidential election
The former United States President rejects Trump denials that Moscow tried to affect vote.
George W Bush said yesterday that there is pretty clear evidence that the Russians meddled in the 2016 US presidential election. This statement is forcefully rebutting Donald Trump’s denials that Moscow tried to affect the vote. The White House did not immediately comment on Bush’s remarks. Apparently it needed time to attack Bush somehow without hurting it's uneducated base of supporters.
Bush continued that it is problematic that a foreign nation is involved in our election system. Our democracy is only as good as people trust the results. Multiple United States intelligence agencies have concluded that Russia meddled in the 2016 election to help Trump win. Numerous investigations are now confirming that Trump’s campaign did aid the Kremlin in its efforts. Trump has repeatedly denied any collusion with Russia. Trump has a history of lying.
Bush stressed the need to back Nato and other alliances the US has with the rest of the world. Putin was “pushing, constantly pushing, probing weaknesses. That’s why Nato is very important,” Bush said.
