Trump camp: China, Iran want president to lose because he's 'held them accountable'

The Trump campaign responded to revelations that China and Iran are hoping he loses reelection in November, saying the president is facing resistance from the countries because he is working to hold them "accountable."

The remarks came after intelligence officials revealed that while China and Iran want Trump to lose, Russia is working to "denigrate" presumptive Democratic nominee Joe Biden.

"The intelligence community's assessment that both China and Iran are trying to stop President Trump's re-election is concerning, but clearly because he has held them accountable after years of coddling by politicians like Joe Biden," said Tim Murtaugh, the campaign's communications director.

The statement came after William Evanina, the director of the National Counterintelligence and Security Center, said China, Russia and Iran are the three top foreign threats to the U.S. presidential race, warning that they are trying to "sway voters' preferences and perspectives," create conflict and "undermine the American people's confidence in our democratic process."

I want him to lose too because he's an incompetent asshole responsible for over 160,000 American deaths.
