Obama is accused of cheating
He accused former DNI James Clapper, CIA Director John Brainon and FBI Director James Comi of preparing false intelligence reports. Gabbard called it a ‘traitors conspiracy’ and said that all this was the foundation of the trump and a long -lasting conspiracy.
Gabbard claimed that the Obama administration deliberately leaked confidential information to spread false news in the media. He said that the news was spread in major media institutions like Washington Post that Russia intervened in a cyber attack in Trump’s victory. According to Gabbard, the new intelligence report released on 6 January 2017 was also based on a fake document which had already been considered incredible. In this way, Obama attempted a failed coup against Trump for years. On the other hand, Obama’s office spokesman Patrick Rodenbush against this statement by Gabbard said, “The allegations are ridiculous and a weak attempt to divert attention.”
