What the article didn't say: He added: "With that being said, all I can do is ask the question. My people came to me … They said they think it's Russia. I have President Putin. He just said it's not Russia."I will say this," Trump said. "I don't see any reason why it would be."

So who did he trust. By those comments, who did he trust? His people or Putin.

I think he's trusting his own judgment. Because neither Team Mueller or Team Putin is being honest.

He trusts his instincts. He is not willing to say Putin is right and not willing to say the agencies who have been trying to rig elections and over turn results for 2 years are right. About the right approach if you ask me. Blindly trusting those fools gets you a 10 year war with Iraq

I think that President Trump believes the findings that forensic analysis of the data transfer metadata show that the DNC emails could not have been accessed at those speeds across the internet from Romania, but had to be done locally via a flash drive in the eastern daylight time zone.

Even the ultra-liberal The Nation magazine believes this hypothesis and disputes the DNC and intelligence agency reports.

If we are to believe the forensic metadata analysis, then the Russian hacking theory (and resulting indictments) are unsupportable.

His people. He offered to send them so they could prove beyond any reasonable doubt that Putin is lying. He offered to get past this silly "he said, she said" phase. If he didn't trust his people were able to prove their case, he would have given them a conclusory nod, and as the press tells us, Trump can't be trusted anyway.
