Over the weekend, Trump made waves among policy and media circles when during a brief, informal exchange with reporters on New Year’s Eve at his Mar-a-Lago estate in Palm Beach, the president-elect questioned the official version of “Russians hacking the election”, saying it was possible “somebody else” compromised the Democratic campaign’s servers, and adding that he will reveal some previously undisclosed facts in the coming days by hinting that “I also know things that other people don’t know, we they cannot be sure of the situation.”
Asked what that information included, the Republican President-elect said, “You will find out on Tuesday or Wednesday.” He did not elaborate.
This naturally prompted curiosity among the press, with some wondering what, if anything Trump knows, above and beyond what has been revealed, while others such as CNN’s Jim Sciutto, suggesting that “Trump’s promise of “new information” on #RussianHacking and his team’s subsequent backing off has echoes of the birther campaign.”
