Trump Backtracks. Tuesday, President Donald Trump said that he misspoke when dismissing allegations of Russian meddling in the 2016 elections. "I said the word 'would' instead of 'wouldn’t.' The sentence should have been, 'I don't see any reason why I wouldn't, or why it wouldn't be Russia." This all after Monday when President Trump openly questioned the U.S. government’s assessment that Russia interfered with the 2016 presidential election, saying he doesn’t “see any reason why” Russia would be responsible.
