MSNBC’s Jeremy Bash: Trump Wants Russian Cyber Attack on 2020 Election

‘If the Russians are attacking our election processes and doing so to benefit Donald Trump, I think frankly the president welcomes is it’

EXCERPT:

BASH: "This is really all an effort to squash any information at all about a Russian cyber attack on our 2020 election, because if the Russians are attacking our election processes and they're doing so to benefit Donald Trump, I think frankly the President welcomes it. He wants it. He doesn’t want his intelligence community defending us. He doesn’t want the intelligence warning against us. He certainly doesn’t want Congress understanding it, because Heaven forbid, they might actually help protect our democracy against this attack. He welcomes it. Last time he requested it, he received that benefit, he benefited from it, he welcomed it, and he rewarded it, he rewarded Vladimir Putin. So this is nothing short of the president of the United States wanting, wanting this attack to occur."
