WASHINGTON, November 27. /TASS/. The US Democratic Party keeps coming with "phony" excuses for losing the 2016 presidential election by blaming it on Russia, President Donald Trump wrote in his Twitter account.

"Since the first day I took office, all you hear is the phony Democrat excuse for losing the election, Russia, Russia, Russia," President Trump stated.
