Trump Hints At "Russian Hacking" Revelations In Coming Days: "I Know Things Other People Don't"

During a brief, informal exchange with reporters on New Year's Eve at his Mar-a-Lago estate in Palm Beach, Donald Trump questioned the official version of the "Russians hacking the election", saying it was possible "somebody else" compromised the Democratic campaign’s servers, adding that he will reveal some previously undisclosed facts in the coming days by hinting that "I also know things that other people don’t know, we they cannot be sure of the situation."

Asked what that information included, the Republican President-elect said, "You will find out on Tuesday or Wednesday." He did not elaborate.

Trump also reiterated his belief that others might be responsible for the cyberattacks: “I know a lot about hacking. And hacking is a very hard thing to prove. So it could be somebody else. And I also know things that other people don’t know, and so they cannot be sure of the situation.”

“I think it’s unfair if we don’t know. It could be somebody else,” Reuters cited Trump as telling the media.

He also added that computers are a risky form of communication. “It’s very important, if you have something really important, write it out and have it delivered by courier, the old fashioned way because I’ll tell you what, no computer is safe,” Mr. Trump added. “I don’t care what they say, no computer is safe. I have a boy who’s 10 years old, he can do anything with a computer. You want something to really go without detection, write it out and have it sent by courier.”

There was a leak, but no hack.

This hacking crap was and is a purposeful distraction from corrupt, criminal Hitlery Rotten Clintoon's illegal server emails, which if examined closely, will implicate Sens McCain and Graham, and many other demokkkRATs and RINOs, in the illegal and unconstitutional formation and arming of ISIS, in the Middle East, among many other crimes. That also led to the slaughter of 4 Americans in Benghazi, on 9-11-12.

Despite the hysterical claims of the press, the election was not hacked. The Democratic National Committee’s lousy IT security allowed someone – Seth Rich, whom the DNC had murdered – to access their emails which were then leaked. Clinton’s campaign manager John Podesta fell for an age-old phishing scam that was as believable as getting millions of dollars from a Nigerian prince. Using the dimwitted media understanding of cybersecurity, they can claim that the DNC and Hillary’s campaign were “hacked,” but the election decisively was not. And the corrupt, covering-her-ample-ass press knows it.

Fact is he's completely correct.
And when you send a message by courier make
sure it's encrypted.

I just worry about the number of MOLES he’s left behind in every department of the government.

A friend who does LEO work told a few of us that he believes the Russian Malware is what often accompanies Porn sites. If that is true the computers in Vermont electric company and used by DNC were also used to view/download pornography ! I would have no problem believing that!

But the Democrats are too proud to admit leakers and traitors within their own ranks.

Yes, they give awards, promotion, raises and elevated status to leakers and traitors. And and so are the GOPe/RINOs, covering for McCain and Graham and others.

“write it out and have it delivered by courier”

It is how some of the most sensitive classified information is still communicated; courier.

When Trump takes office, I hope he fires those in the CIA
and FBI responsible for this fake Russian hacking report.

Fake Intel. Fake report.
