    My brother in OSRS, they had emails from the Republican Party as well, but didn’t release them because they said there was nothing interesting in them. I don’t disagree at all that Clinton’s strategy was inappropriate, but there’s plenty of legitimate reasons to dislike WikiLeaks. Ironically, there’s a lack of transparency on them. They should’ve released the GOP emails.

    WikiLeaks has a problem when we need a WikiLeaks for WikiLeaks.

      My brother in Middle Earth, the hate started long before WikiLeaks allegedly had any Republican emails, and even searching for the subject now I can’t find anything that says WikiLeaks had them.

      Edit: I found a source, reading it again pretty much tells the whole story (it wasn’t emails but “information on the Trump campaign”): https://thehill.com/blogs/ballot-box/presidential-races/293453-assange-wikileaks-trump-info-no-worse-than-him/

        Oh of course some people said that. Doesn’t mean they’re right though. And even so, they should’ve released that information on the trump campaign

          What information could they possibly have that is worse than what we already know about Trump? He could eat babies on stage and 30% of people would still vote for him.

            Something like the Trump campaign bribing the RNC early on. You could have the exact same things going on that the DNC did.
