A Trump video saying that DNC ​​should be "ashamed" of being hacked resurfaced after the NRCC hacking was revealed

A video of President Trump stating that the Democratic National Committee should be "ashamed of being allowed to be hacked" before the 2016 election that resurfaced on Tuesday after it was reported that the Republicans campaign body of the House had been hacked.

National Security Attorney Bradley Moss retweeted a July video that showed that Trump boasted that Republicans were better protected from cyber-intrusions.

"It's clear that the @NRCC should be ashamed of themselves.It's the president's opinion on cybersecurity," teased Trump's spokesman.

"The DNC should be ashamed to be hacked. They had bad defenses and they could be hacked, "Trump told CBS News'" Face the Nation "interview in July. "I heard that they were also trying to hack Republicans. But, and it may be wrong, but they had much stronger defenses. "

" I heard that they were trying, or that people were trying to, to hack the Republican National Committee. The Republican National Committee, "he said. "But we had better defenses. This has been said by several people. We had better defenses, so they could not.

Politico announced Tuesday that the email accounts of four key NRCC staff members had been compromised for months before the violations were detected in April by a security service provider monitoring its network. Although the party leadership team in the House and its single members were not informed of the intrusion, the NRCC opened an investigation and the FBI was alerted.

Party officials did not specify the date of the attack nor its origin, although they claimed to believe that a foreign agent was behind the effort.

The report was released after the NRCC leaders waived an agreement with the Congressional Democratic Congress campaign committee to refrain from using pirated or stolen equipment during the election campaign, the New York Times reported in September.

Trump denigrated the DNC in July shortly after special advocate Robert Mueller indicted a dozen Russian military officials for introducing two Democratic Party computer systems to disrupt the 2016 election.
