Poll: 55% of Americans bothered by Russian election hacking

Thank you! I actually ended up reading many of the Wikileaks emails every time someone claimed they "proved" something, like "the DNC cheated Bernie" or something about Soros or whatever. I only found two things: 1) there was some unprofessional shit said about the Sanders campaign and 2) Donna Brazile sent two questions.

The first is understandable; people get competitive and sometimes people shoot off an email to blow off steam. I bet you the same stuff was said in all the campaign.

The second just shows that Brazile is, frankly, not that smart. She "helped" by risking a scandal to send two very obvious questions. One was 'you're going to be asked about lead in the Flint townhall' (duh!) and the other was 'you're going to be asked about the death penalty.' (this happens in every election) This didn't help with anything' it was just stupid. There was no back and fourth with these emails because I'm sure the staffer on the other end thought Brazile's email was a waste if time.

That's it! Nothing else. I'd expect to find the same thing in other campaigns: some people blow off steam while someone tries to be "helpful" and they're ignored.

The accusation that the Trump campaign worked with Russia to spread propaganda--if it's true, that is actual corruption.
