WASHINGTON – President Donald Trump on Tuesday went on the attack against former President Barack Obama, over Russia and the 2016 election after his intelligence chief alleged a “treasonous conspiracy” committed by Obama and his officials.

Trump, asked in the Oval Office about the Jeffrey Epstein case, quickly pivoted into an attack on Obama, Democrat Hillary Clinton and a probe into whether Russia interfered with the 2016 election.
