Trump confirms he OK’d US cyberattack against Russia in 2018

[xuenchen]

According to the Washington Post (careful), Trump gave the "go ahead" for an operation against a Russian troll farm that was interfering in the 2018 election !

Trump said "we stopped it" (meaning the Russian trolls).

This story isn't getting much MSM coverage (understandably because it wrecks the Democrat BS story about Trump being in Putin's pocket).

This is the same Russian outfit that was raising Hell in 2016, even though to this day, nobody has offered any real evidence about how many votes were "influenced".

Bet this Troll Farm was really helping Democrats all along and now Trump has punched it down !!

Obama knew about these Russians and did zer0, which makes the case for the Trolls being symPATHETIC to Democrats !!

President Trump acknowledged this week that in 2018 he authorized a covert U.S. cyberattack against a Russian “troll farm,” according to a report.

The attack targeted Russia’s Internet Research Agency, the St. Petersburg organization that led Russian efforts to disrupt the 2016 U.S. presidential election and was repeating its efforts ahead of the 2018 midterm elections, The Washington Post reported.

In an interview with Post columnist Marc A. Thiessen, Trump said he OK’d the U.S. operation after receiving an intelligence report about Russia’s activities.

“Look, we stopped it,” the president said, contrasting his action with what he claimed was former President Barack Obama’s reluctance to take action in 2016.

According to Thiessen, Trump claimed Obama “said nothing” about Russian interference that year because he thought Hillary Clinton was going to win the race for the White House against Trump.
