Hillary Clinton’s Campaign Manager Accuses Russia Of Trying To Get Trump Elected


Well, czar you have it. Russia and Wikileaks are in a desperate fight to get the first orange supremacist elected to high office.

A U.S. election that has already seen its share of drama witnessed a James-Bond-level plot twist Sunday – accusations of Russian meddling in the campaign.

It’s a charge levelled by Democrats as they gather for their convention.

Hillary Clinton’s campaign manager did a round on the weekly talk shows where he raised the suggestion that Russian actors are looking to undermine her in an attempt to elect Donald Trump.

He pointed to a pattern that includes reports of Russians hacking into the Democratic Party’s servers; the Trump campaign’s business ties to Putin allies; Trump’s words and positions undermining NATO, the European Union and assistance for Ukraine; the compliments back and forth between Trump and Putin; and now the leak of those hacked emails at a moment likeliest to disrupt the Democratic convention.

“What’s disturbing to us is that experts are telling us Russian state actors broke into the (Democratic National Committee), stole these emails and other experts are now saying the Russians are releasing these emails for the purpose of actually helping Donald Trump,” Robby Mook told CNN, in comments he repeated elsewhere.

“When you put it all together, it’s a disturbing picture. And I think voters need to reflect on that. … I don’t think it’s very coincidental that they’re being released at this time – to create maximum damage and help elect Donald Trump.” Cont.
