Trump and Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard have spent the last several days accusing Obama and his administration of treason, claiming they orchestrated a hoax to undermine confidence in Trump’s election victory in 2016.

Former President Barack Obama denied President Donald Trump's “bizarre allegations" that he was the Russiagate “ringleader," in a rare public statement Tuesday evening.

Hours after Trump falsely accused Obama of trying to rig the 2016 election, the ex-president’s office said it had no choice but to publicly refute the claim.
