According To The New York Times President Trump Has Just Admitted That Russia Helped Him Win The 2016 Election
....say he fought back against this phony crime that didn’t exist, this horrendous false accusation, and he shouldn’t fight back, he should just sit back and take it. Could this be Obstruction? No, Mueller didn’t find Obstruction either. Presidential Harassment!— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) May 30, 2019
New York Times: Trump Admits to Russia ‘Helping Me to Get Elected’
WASHINGTON — President Trump on Thursday acknowledged for the first time that Russia helped “me to get elected,” and then quickly retracted the idea.
“No, Russia did not help me get elected,” Mr. Trump told reporters as he departed the White House for Colorado Springs. “I got me elected.” He spoke less than an hour after his Twitter post.
The original comment, a clause in one of several Twitter posts this morning, is an extraordinary admission from Mr. Trump, who has avoided saying publicly that Russia helped him win the presidency in 2016 through its election interference. American intelligence agencies and federal prosecutors have long concluded that Russia tried to influence voters.
Mr. Trump has been reluctant to fully embrace the intelligence agencies’ findings that Russia was behind the 2016 election interference, but he has consistently argued that he alone was responsible for his unexpected victory. The “Russia hoax,” Mr. Trump has argued, is one fabricated by Democrats who are angry they lost the White House.

WNU Editor: Because of this blog I do read everyone of President Trump's tweets, and in the past three years I have become very familiar with his writing style. He is not admitting that Russia "helped me to get elected" in the above tweet. Far from it. But according to the New York Times .... he is. One of the faults that I have observed more than once in the media coverage of President Trump is that they take his tweets or remarks literally. Case in point .... telling the Russians in a campaign speech in 2016 to "find Hillary Clinton's emails". Then candidate Trump was mocking the media in front of a crowd who responded by laughing and agreeing with him. They understood his joke, and so did I. But many in the media and his opponents saw him as someone who was voicing support for Russia to hack Hillary Clinton's servers .... which by the way were disconnected and no longer online at the time. But will not let those pesky facts get in the way of a media narrative.
