The Trump Hack Could Extend Far Beyond a Hack-and-Leak - emptywheel

The question of how to approach this news that Iran hacked Trump's campaign goes well beyond the question of whether to publish the documents allegedly stolen. In significant part because Trump refuses to firewall his political life from his criminal life, hacks by Iran could create real damage to the United States far beyond what they do to Trump's campaign.

trump, a felonious traitor, with MORE charges pending!
THIS man cannot take the "Oath of Office!"

Cheung is a habitual liar, so we can’t trust anything he says,
the Trump campaign has muddled various functions, criminal and civil defense with campaign finance and, now, candidate vetting. It creates a legal morass, one that — if Trump loses this election — could lead to more legal trouble down the road.

Maybe that’s why Trump didn’t call the FBI.
