In February, he claimed the Democrats needed to come up with a story about why they lost the election so they “made up a story — RUSSIA.”

Last week, reports surfaced that the Senate Intelligence Committee is asking the president’s former campaign aides for information on any contact with Russian officials.

The committee is currently probing Russia’s interference in the presidential election and ties between the Trump campaign and Moscow.

The president on Sunday also shared a tweet from Fox News, in which he clarified he is not against the media, but is “against the FAKE media.”
