administration has stink on it. we get what their mentality was about feeling they were in a catch-22. whatever. they should have done more. they didn t. shame on them. fair point. however, we know a hell of a lot more now than we did then, and president trump no doubt. at a rally on july 27th, 2016, said in full-throated fashion, russia, find the hillary e-mails and now we know in this indictment, after hours that same damn night, they did exactly that. they started spearfishing. so this is a situation he has to own, and it raises the question, mike, why doesn t he? why is it when it comes to putin, he has kid gloves on his hands? the guy pointed missiles at his house. do you remember that video? i had them pull it. he pointed missiles this is from putin, showing the range of their missiles and how far they could go. and you know where they wind up coming down? forget about the mountains. yeah. florida. right in the region of where mar-a-lago is. you know what trump said
quote, on or about july 27th, 2016, the conspiriters tried to spear fish at or around the same time they targeted 76 e-mail addresses at the domain for the clinton campaign. and nothing connects what the candidate said with what the russians did, but the timing of it? it raises questions. but the president asked for russia to get involved on the same day the indictment says the russians got involved. reaction now from somebody who knows more about the russian cyber attack, former clinton campaign manager. anderson, on the one hand this is not terribly new information. we have known for a long time that the russians and specifically russian intelligence were behind the stealing of e-mails from the dnc
