Special Counsel Jack Smith Honing in on Oval Office Meeting Where Trump Bragged About Election Security, CNN Sources Claim

CNN sources claimed that Trump, the commander-in-chief at the time, was so convinced that he suggested doing a press conference where he could take credit for that work and tout the impressive security measures. Sean Lyngaas, Kylie Atwood, Zachary Cohen, and Evan Perez’s findings were reported on during Monday’s edition of The Lead.

“So, this is, as you say, a contrast to what he was saying just weeks later where he ramped up conspiracy theories and was full bore in the fact that the election was not going to turn into his favor, Bianna,” said Lyngaas.
