Donald Trump semble ignorer la menace russe

Qu'il soit terriblement maladroit, mal préparé ou carrément égocentrique, Donald Trump a une fois de plus peiné à consoler et à rassembler pendant la fin de semaine. Si on peut déplorer son comportement pendant de graves crises nationales, comment ne pas s'étonner aussi devant une apparente inaction devant la menace d'ingérence russe dans le processus électoral. Alors que ses agences témoignent de l'ingérence pendant la campagne 2016 et affirment que la Russie est sur le point de récidiver pour les élections de mi-mandat, le président donne l'impression de ne pas protéger adéquatement les États-Unis.

 "From that position of power, Trump has systematically attempted to shut down investigations of the foreign-espionage operation that operated on his behalf. He fired the director of the FBI to shut it down. His White House coordinated with the chairman of the House Intelligence Committee to misdirect the investigation. He mobilized the speaker of the House to thwart bipartisan investigations under broadly respected leadership. He has inspired, supported, and joined a national propaganda campaign against the Mueller investigation.

And all the while, Trump has done nothing—literally nothing—to harden the nation’s voting systems against follow-on Russian operations. On Sunday, he publicly repudiated his own national-security adviser for acknowledging at the Munich Security Conference the most incontrovertible basics of what happened in 2016."
