Trump faces new test with midterm election interference report

President Trump is about to be told whether the U.S. intelligence community believes foreign interference took place during last month's midterm elections.

Under an executive order signed by Trump earlier this year, the Office of the Director of National Intelligence (DNI) will deliver an assessment on election security to the White House on Friday, marking the second time officials will have determined whether there was foreign meddling in a U.S. general election.

If officials find that interference took place - a prediction already being made by lawmakers on both sides of the aisle - it will pose a major test for Trump, who has been criticized for not doing enough to combat meddling from U.S. adversaries.

"I don't think there's any doubt that Russia's influence efforts are ongoing," Sen. Marco Rubio (R-Fla.) said Wednesday. "They view it as part of their broader strategy, it's a key part of their tactics they use around the world."

Since Republicans didn't do as well Drumpf might take things more seriously. Maybe.
