Former White House Press Secretary Sean Spicer both acknowledged that Russia meddled in the 2016 presidential election and denied any collusion from President Donald Trump and his campaign during an appearance on NBC’s Today show Thursday. “I think it’s very important to be clear that Russia meddled in our election and there’s no evidence of collusion,” Spicer told anchor Savannah Guthrie. When asked by Guthrie whether Special Counsel Robert Mueller’s Russia investigation is a “witch hunt,” as Trump has repeatedly called it, Spicer said he has “seen no evidence that it is,” before doubling down on his denial of collusion. In an interview with @TODAYShow Sean Spicer said that he does not believe Mueller's Russia investigation is a witch hunt, contradicting a claim often repeated by President Trump.
