Trump has lost any legitimacy he might have had. The CIA is not a political entity; he should have paid attention to it and said he would see to it any help he had from them was not repeated. I doubt their activity won him the election, but it may be that they really did alter enough votes in electronic states to do that.
His reaction instead -- just a stupid denial without evidence -- is outrageous and, as I said, strips him of legitimacy.
At the same time, I have to also conclude that the majority if not all Republicans in the US are hypocrites of the worst and most vile form I can imagine, accepting the fact, without protest or even call for change, that a man was elected President via technical and obsolete and undemocratic rules who in fact lost the election by a significant margin. It appears Republicans only believe in democracy when it is convenient.
