      Trump, reading from piece of paper, said he has "full faith and support" for U.S. intelligence agencies. "I accept our Intelligence Community's conclusion that Russia's meddling in the 2016 election took place." He THEN seems to have ad-libbed: "It could be other people also"

      He then claims he misspoke by saying "I don't see any reason why it would be" Russia that interfered. Said he meant "wouldn't." But right before he said that yesterday, he said: "I have President Putin; he just said it's not Russia. I don't see any reason why it would be."

      Given the amount of attention his remark got, if Trump really misspoke yesterday, wouldn’t the WH have corrected it right away - rather than waiting almost 30 hours to say so?

          More like it took 24 hours for them to realize just how badly it played, even among people who normally support him.

          He did a whole show with Hannity right after. They celebrated his performance. No clarifications. No walk backs.

          EXACTLY. Can someone ask the WH why they didn't clean it up immediately? And why we would want to work with Russia given the fact that they are attacking our power grid, hacked our elections...

          See if you can find out who wrote his “speech” today. That would be worth a lot.

          And he had an interview with @seanhannity the same day he met with Putin! He could have corrected it then. Nope. He is only doing this because he was made to. You could tell he didn't want to read what he was reading. And at the end he once again said it could have been others.

          Yes. And the 'misspoke' excuse doesn't make any sense in the context of the rest of his remarks with Putin.This is absurd spin.
