Rod Rosenstein doesn’t believe voters were swayed by Russian social media ads
Deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein, who is overseeing special counsel Robert Mueller’s Russia investigation, said he does not believe American voters were “influenced” by ads from Russian-linked accounts.
“You know, American citizens are pretty savvy, and they decide who to vote for. I don’t think they’d be influenced by ads posted by foreign governments,” Rosenstein told J.J. Green, a national security reporter for WTOP-FM, on Wednesday, according to Politico. “I think people are more thoughtful about that in the way that they make their decisions. But nonetheless, you know, if we have foreign countries that are seeking to interfere in our elections, I think we need to take appropriate actions in response.”
