Roger Stone, had Assange drop on wikileaks the Podesta emails stolen by the Russians or Trump campaign if you don't believe it was the Russians and Roger Stone had it done on behalf of Trump, the same DAY the Access Hollywood tape of Trump claiming he could grab any beautiful woman's ***** and get away with it, because he was a Star...
the next 25 rallies that Trump had, he mentioned the wikileaks over and over and over again, which made all the main stream media coverage. ALONG with every single day Briebart and Drudge and FOX with a new wilileaks article that would metastasize in all of the thousands of right wing media sites and facebook placements.
IT CERTAINLY could have affected the election, or the felony theft would never had been done.

What damaging info was released by the hackers?
It didn't matter nothing was truly damaging or even real....the blogosphere and right wing media such as FOX, Briebart, Drudge, the New York Post, the Guardian made it ALL out to be.... and Trump Primarily USED IT Daily in all of his rally rants and tweets and distorted what was actually found and made it in to another "Lock Her Up" situation....
It was dumped on to the net, the precise time that was needed for Trump, to draw the talk away from donald trump's access hollywood video or at least deter from the story of Trump's tape....that he could use in his rallies and on every talk show with his surrogates when they brought up Trump's grabbing ***** comment they went on and changed the subject to talk about the wikileaks of Podesta emails....
And spun out of the Podesta emails were all of these made up conspiracy theories like Pizzagate and pedophilia....and Clinton cash etc...
It didn't matter nothing was truly damaging or even real....
So the hack didn't impact the election....good to know.
Well, it may not have mattered THAT much, but it was certainly one of the spokes in the wheel of misfortunes and calamities that her campaign had to go through.
The DNC wikileaks, near the end of the Primary, probably hurt her campaign the most.
Yes, Bernie Sanders tried to laugh it off, and made no big deal out of it, basically saying he was so thankful that his campaign's emails were not hacked and read by the public on wikileaks, and implied he was certain there was stuff in there he didn't want the Clinton campaign or the public to know as well!
but the leak itself, and the intensity of the Right wing media outlets posting every little thing, making them out to be the worst things evah! that spread like lightening through social media and then the focus of the right wing USING THIS to promote as much controversy as possible between the Bernie supporters and Hillary, was so INTENSE and mostly promoted by Right wingers who couldn't give a rat's ass about Bernie.
Well, there is no doubt that the illegal hacking and distribution of the stolen emails by wikileaks, and the dropping of these emails to the public at the precise time in the primary that would hurt Hillary the most.....
Put many Bernie supporters on a path to revenge and that came from the STOLEN private emails and timing of the drop in the primary.
And that REVENGE ended with devout Bernie people
staying home or voting Green etc, or even voting Trump.
The Podesta emails may not have been that harmful, they were more of a useful tool for the Trump campaign to use to change the topic off of him and the Access Hollywood tapes, but if the DNC emails allegedly stolen by the Russians and dumped in the public by wikileaks during the primary and right after,
had not taken place, I think it would be a pretty solid bet, that Hillary Clinton, would be Madam President....
so, there is a good chance that the election WAS INFLUENCED by the Russians, and those involved with the emails being leaked and with their strategic timing very likely were factors....
I am not trying to diminish many other things that happened that were factors in diminishing her 11 point lead over him... her ''half of his supporters are a basket of deplorable(s)" comment was a factor, Bill meeting the attorney gen on the tarmac was a factor, however her 3 debate wins according to the polling pulled her out of those holes that were dug...
The congress critters that ran to the Press and leaked that Comey was requesting to reopen the Clinton email case definitely, without any doubt, was a factor.... and was part in putting a halt to her rising tide...
Then the Podesta emails and the lies spun from them, and the tool for the rightwing and Trump to use...
But all in all, if I were to commit to one thing and one thing only that had a pretty good certainty that changed the result of this election, I would have to say the DNC Leaks and how they were used by the right wing, including on this very site, to enrage Bernie supporters, in to basically an "I'll show you!" And not voting at all...
AND THAT ABOVE was due to the Russian hackers and then timed releasing....the so called,
Russian Influence.
