CYBERATTACK/JOE BIDEN/TRUMP AS PRESIDENT: “President-elect Joe Biden blasted President Donald Trump’s response to the cyber hack of government agencies and U.S. businesses, saying the administration must publicly identify the culprit of the sophisticated attack and take action in response…

Biden welcomed congressional leaders of both parties criticizing the attack and preparing to take action. But he criticized Trump for failing to prioritize cybersecurity by eliminating or downgrading cybersecurity officers and ‘President Trump’s irrational downplaying of the seriousness of the attack. Enough is enough.’”
