    Remember when Trump stood in front of a microphone and literally asked Russia to hack the Clinton campaign, and a few days later Russia did exactly that? Pepperidge Farm remembers.

    Some experts in email security said publicly available email exchange records indicate the campaign staff’s email accounts weren’t well protected. As one indicator, it had not enabled a common system called DMARC, which would confirm that an email sender from a Trump address was actually part of the campaign.

    So they didn’t use basic security measures to keep their systems safe and (at least) one of the users fell for a spear phishing attack. Color me surprised.

    It was obvious trump and co were gonna try to disrupt the elections before they got hacked. They said so many times themselves while repeating the lie that Democrats were going to try and steal the election.
