John Brennan: American People Deserve to Know Nature of Threat to Election, Russians Trying to Help Trump

‘I think it’s because Donald Trump really is hoping that the Russians are going to continue to help him win this coming election’

RUSH EXCERPT:
BRENNAN: "I wish the director of the national intelligence had more credibility at this point. I think the American people need to know and deserve to know what the nature of the threat is to our upcoming election. And unfortunately, John John Ratcliffe has demonstrated time and again that he has politicized his position by doing things in support of Donald Trump. And so that press statement the other night when both John Ratcliffe and Chris Wray came out, it was rather puzzling. Although Iran has cyber capability, no doubt about that, Russia has much more sophisticated capabilities and its presence in social media, which is the vector it uses to influence attitudes, sentiments and votes, it’s much more pervasive, insidious and damaging than Iran’s."
CUOMO: "Why move on Iran and not Russia?"
BRENNAN: "Well, I think it’s because Donald Trump really is hoping that the Russians are going to continue to help him win this coming election the way they helped him last time.
