Trump completely denied any Russian involvement in the US Presidential elections in 2016 as he responded with a big, "No", when commenting on this issue.

However,  White House Press Secretary Sarah later said that Trump had replied, "No" while answering many other questions.

At a news briefing on Wednesday, she said,"  The president and his administration are working very hard to make sure that Russia is unable to meddle in our elections as they have done in the past."

Cecilia Vega of the ABC news asked Trump whether Russia would still target the US elections to which the latter replied, " Thank you very much, no"

Vega further asked, "No? You don't believe that to be the case?" to which Trump said, " No".

However, Sanders, in the news briefing at the White House seemed to dismiss the interpretations and said, " We wouldn't actually spend as much time and effort as we are if we didn't believe that [Russia is] still looking at us."

A copy of the interaction was posted by Vega on Twitter where she furthered mentioned that the US President looked at her directly while answering the questions.
She tweeted, "Getting a lot of questions about my exchange with @realDonaldTrump today.

Yes, he was looking directly at me when he spoke.

Yes, I believe he heard me clearly. He answered two of my questions.
Here’s the full exchange:"

This would put him against the US Intelligence for the second time since his summit with Russian President Vladimir Putin on Monday.

Dan Coats, the chief of the US Intelligence said, Russia was involved in "ongoing, pervasive efforts to undermine our democracy".
