Weeks before Donald Trump took office, Democratic Senate Leader Chuck Schumer issued an ominous warning.
“You take on the intelligence community? They have six ways from Sunday of getting back at you,” the New York Democrat said in an interview with MSNBC on Jan. 3, 2017.
Schumer was responding to Trump’s criticism of an intelligence community assessment that said Russia interfered explicitly to help the Republican win the 2016 election.
“He’s being really dumb to do this,” Schumer said of Trump.
Schumer’s prediction appears to have been borne out repeatedly during the Trump administration through a series of leaks from intelligence community and law enforcement officials aimed at stoking the narrative that Trump and his allies were in cahoots with Russia.
