Hillary Clinton campaign: Russians leaked Democrats’ emails to help Trump

Clinton Campaign Manager Robby Mook told CNN’s Jake Tapper Sunday that “experts” have claimed that Russian hackers who favor Donald Trump coordinated the release of thousands of Democratic National Committee emails to aid the nominee’s campaign.

Hillary Clinton campaign chairman Robby Mook appeared on CNN this morning and played up talk of Russian influence on the USA election in reaction to the DNC email leak.

On the eve of the July 25 opening of the four-day Democratic National Convention in Philadelphia, the Democratic Party was busy reacting to information from party emails leaked to the public.

“I don’t think it’s coincidental that these e-mails were released on the eve of our convention here, and that’s disturbing, and I think we need to be concerned about that”.

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. Watch Clinton’s campaign manager explain how the DNC thinks so in this clip from CNN. “One of the way to get by this is for Debbie Wasserman Schultz to step down for the good of the party”. I think we need to get to the bottom of these facts. that are what experts are telling us.

The DNC first reported in June that Russian intelligence had invaded its system. “There are a number of experts that are asserting this”, Mook said. If true, Moscow’s hacking effort is just one more piece of evidence, piled increasingly high, that Russian leadership supports Trump’s bid for president.

“They’re pretty desperate pretty quickly”, Trump Campaign Chairman Paul Manafort said at a press conference in Philadelphia on Sunday.

Donald Trump’s campaign, however, dismissed the claims as absurd.

Trump’s allies at last week’s convention fought for an uncharacteristically dovish Russian position on Russia in that party’s platform.

“This is really very sad, and I hope that more people will wake up and see what’s happening”, Carson said.

Miranda then made it clear that Clinton’s team didn’t like the DNC’s plan, which was to focus on criticizing and blaming Republicans in Congress. Clinton’s team apparently thought that plan would only help Trump, since it could offer him legitimacy by comparing him to elected officials. He broke from longstanding policy within the North Atlantic Treaty Organisation, telling The New York Times he might not intervene if Russian Federation invaded a neighbouring North Atlantic Treaty Organisation country.
