Is the Russian Government Helping Trump Win the Election?

[ABX]

....    Private-sector cyber security investigators hired by the DNC concluded that hackers working for the Russian government were behind the year-long breach of the DNC. The investigation found intrusions by two Russian hacking groups.

Let's say this: if a foreign government wanted to tilt the United States elections towards Trump at a critical moment, they could hardly have done better than the release of these emails on the eve of the Democrats' convention. The #DNCleaks have thrown the entire convention into chaos, with the DNC forced to resign in disgrace - which then led to her being imprudently scooped up by the Clinton campaign itself, which is about the worst possible move in terms of optics. One assumes DWS has further dirt on Clinton that forced the move, but Clinton's attempt to woo Bernie supporters back into the fold may have just hit a permanent roadblock. What should be a triumphant moment for Clinton is now an absolute mess......

And this morning, Trump was stupid enough to make this tweet.

The new joke in town is that Russia leaked the disastrous DNC e-mails, which should never have been written (stupid), because Putin likes me

Can you imagine Hillary joking: The new joke in town is that China leaked the disastrous RNC e-mails, which should never have been written (stupid), because Xi Jinping likes me

That would blow up as foreign collusion.

A candidate that would destroy NATO and allow Russia to invade neighboring countries at their leisure.

Why wouldn't they help??
