I can vouch for the fact that he made the first 2 statements today in answers he made to reporters’ questions prior to boarding AF1 to head to the Air Force Academy commencement. The third remark may have been made during that questioning period, but I cannot be positive about that one.
THE PRESIDENT: You know who got me elected? You know who got me elected? I got me elected. Russia didnt help me at all. Russia, if anything, I think, helped the other side. What you ought to ask is this: Do you think the media helped Hillary Clinton get elected? She didnt make it, but you take a look at collusion between Hillary Clinton and the media. You take a look at collusion between Hillary Clinton and Russia. She had more to do, in the campaign, with Russia than I did. I had nothing to do.
And, by the way, thats one other thing. If you look, this was all about Russia, Russia, Russia. They dont talk about Russia anymore because it turned out to be a hoax. It was all a hoax. And then they say, Gee, he fought back. Isnt that terrible? He fought back. Of course, I fight back. Because it was a false accusation a totally false accusation. And its a disgrace. And its a very its a very sad period for this country.
And I think, in the end, I will consider whats happening now to be one of my greatest achievements: exposing this corruption.
Thank you.
