DNC Email Hack: Why Vladimir Putin Hates Hillary Clinton
NBC News ^ | July 27, 2016 | Mark Schone

Posted on 07/27/2016 5:21:04 AM PDT by Biggirl

If Russia is indeed behind the damaging leak of Democratic Party emails on the eve of its national convention, it's not just because President Vladimir Putin likes Republican nominee Donald Trump and his pro-Russian views, former U.S. officials and experts tell NBC News.

NBC joins the “change the subject” effort by the DNC.
No surprise here.

If this was about hacked RNC emails that exposed the corruption of the Republicans - even if Putin was behind it - the MSM would give him the Pulitzer Prize rather than their condemnation.

NBC promotes the lie with another plausible lie pulled right out of his ass.

Whatever the result of this latest particular scandal, I think this constant coverage (pun intended) of Hillary by the media will have a negative effect on their credibility. Especially with the plugged in younger generation who are not subscribers to any newspaper nor regular watchers of news TV.

The media is pushing their shield of the DNC too far this election cycle. I think it will result in a generational distrust of the media especially among the disenfranchised Bernie lovers. The MSM is taking things too far even for the masses. No one is buying this “it’s the Russians’ fault” line; it’s only harming the MSM. Another in a long list of media spin for the DNC that not only we can see through but also starting to make the Bern-heads wonder, “Hmm, maybe the MSM really is biased. I wonder what else they’ve been lying about”.

It does not matter WHO hacked the DNC.
What matters is WHO WROTE THEM AND WHY.............................Playing the ‘VICTIM CARD’ will not work in this situation because HILLARY CANNOT PLAY THE VICTIM AND THE VICTOR SIMULTANEOUSLY..................

Putin sees the future. At some point, the US, Russia, and possibly China will be allies in the war to exterminate a sufficient number of Muslims to stop the mass murders.

How about the fact that Russia has had and probable still has access to our top secrets, to include our foreign policy objectives.

Maybe our objectives include polices unfriendly to mother Russia.

Trump would more than likely turn course.

Good point. Russia surely hacked Clinton’s servers with no protection. They know what Clinton wants.

Therefore, Clinton must go.

Trump just got confirmation of the close relationship between the DNC and the Left-leaning MSM. And it just completely discredited the MSM in a most spectacular fashion.

Besides, Trump will now use the gigantic advantage on social media even more effectively.

"The Russian people, like people everywhere, deserve the right to have their voices heard and their votes counted" Clinton said. "And that means they deserve fair, free, transparent elections and leaders who are accountable to them."

The very definition of hypocrisy.

“So far, no evidence that Russia even did this, just MSM and DNC colluded hot air, they have no proof of this”

Apparently there is metadata on the emails showing that they have been on Russian servers at some point. People in our intelligence community have long thought that Assange and Snowden have been working for Russia. An anonymous outfit like wikileaks could easily be infiltrated by Russian gov’t hackers.

The idea that Russia is involved isn’t just something cooked up by the DNC and MSM. But I wouldn’t get distracted with that argument, the emails are what they are no matter who released them.

The Russians view the U.S.A. as a potential strong ally. They are aware of the weakness and depravity of the U.S. Left and the strength and health of U.S. Conservatives. As the West continues to degenerate into decadence and Third World dictators become more powerful and agressive, Russia looks more and more to American Conservatives as its allies, as a bastion of great strength and clarity, and as a mighty resource to defend the remains of Western Civilization (in Russia, Eastern Europe, and potentially North America) as the rest of the world sinks into a horrifying dark age.

It's no wonder that the Russians want to tip the scales in America, if they can, toward ascendancy, i.e. toward Donald Trump.

He promises hope for America and also for Russia and the rest of the world.

If Hillary and the forces of decadence prevail, Russia and Eastern Europe could find themselves alone facing a violent, chaotic, world embroiled in a bloody dark age. A strong, conservative America could tip the scales for them, establishing a new golden age of enlightenment and ascendancy, as an alliance of North America, Russia, and the rest of Eastern Europe lead the way to an enlightened world.

Just heard that the Russkis came out this morning and told the ‘RATS to stop blaming them for the hacks. LOL! Like the TV bobbleheads like to say, “This is going to be fun to watch.”

Interesting!

Maybe the Russians are saying to the DNC something like,

“Watch out, guys. If you keep accusing us of leaking those emails, then we’ll release some additional docs that are EVEN WORSE.”

Trump is talking about this very thing right now on FNC. He said if they did hack the emails, they more than likely have all of her emails that she deleted.

The Russians view the U.S.A. as a potential strong ally.

I'm not so sure that is true. Likely it should be as we have a number of common interests (mainly fighting radical Islam). And Americans really have no quarrel with them directly. But Russians are a proud and patriotic people, and the truth is many of them hold incredible hard feelings towards us for winning the Cold War. They want to see their country elevated to a status co-equal to ours (as they felt they were as the USSR). Thus anything they can do to weaken us is seen a as step in that direction. And nothing weakens us like Democrats being in control.

"Ahhh DNC -what about Seth Rich."
He was killed for "the good of the party".

Absolutely. The folks in the DNC who ordered this assination are sitting back and laughing and chuckling about it.
