National security adviser Robert O’Brien disputes Russian meddling to favor Trump’s reelection

Robert O’Brien directly contradicted intelligence official findings.

White House national security adviser Robert O’Brien is denying new U.S. intelligence reports that Russian actors are interfering to help President Donald Trump win a second term, but he admitted he has not looked at or sought out materials surrounding those reports.

“I haven’t seen any intelligence that Russia is doing anything to attempt to get President Trump reelected,” O’Brien told ABC News Chief Anchor George Stephanopoulos on Saturday, saying it amounted to “a non-story.”
