Who Knows? Assange Answers Hannity on Whether WikiLeaks Changed Outcome of Election

As we reported earlier today, Fox News’ Sean Hannity traveled to London to speak with WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange for an exclusive in-person interview.

While Hannity will present the interview tomorrow evening and then show additional parts throughout the rest of the week, we do have some bits available now.

In response to why he thinks the Obama Administration took a dramatic response to the allegations that Russia hacked the election, Assange had the following to say:

“Our publications had wide uptake by the American people, they’re all true. But that’s not the allegation that’s being presented by the Obama White House. So, why such a dramatic response? Well, the reason is obvious. They’re trying to delegitimize the Trump administration as it goes into the White House. They are trying to say that President-elect Trump is not a legitimate President.”

1. I don't think Wikileaks had any influence on American voters,

and I resent the fact that that fucker Assange is trying to take credit, albeit in a back-handed way. The folks who "could never vote" for Hillary are the only people imho who paid any attention to the Podesta emails--which were absolutely a nothing story.

And there are plenty of us who do believe Donald Trump was not the legitimate choice of the populace. My great-uncle Tilden Hendricks Allen was named for the Democrats whose election was stolen by Rutherford B. Hayes; until Al Gore that was the only instance I knew of where the popular vote did not elect the president (that is, was not reflected in the electoral college); now, in recent memory, this apparent one-off has moved toward becoming the norm, and I don't like it.

But Julian Motherfucker Assange had nothing to do with it, and I wish people would stop talking about and to that asshole.
