Trump's dud election speech BACKFIRES; document dump contradicts his complaint
About this episode
Jen Psaki discusses the lack of media attention on Donald Trump's election security speech and the contradictions in the documents he presented.
Jen Psaki looks at how Donald Trump's big speech on election security did not get much media attention, even from his most supporting outlets. And the documents he dramatically unveiled were either not new, had already been debunked, or completely contradicted the threat narrative he was trying to stoke. And of course, while some documents contradicted his conspiracy theories about China, others affirmed that he was supported by Russia.
