President Donald Trump has claimed that China hacked data linked to around 220 million US voters and attempted to influence the outcome of the 2020 presidential election. Speaking from the White House on Thursday, Trump unveiled what he described as newly declassified intelligence, alleging that US election data had been exposed to hacking, exploitation and foreign interference on an unprecedented scale.
He also claimed officials within the intelligence community withheld key information from him while he was president, including allegations that China attempted to manufacture illegal ballots for Joe Biden. Trump said the information had not been shared with him or, to the best of his knowledge, with Congress.
