In reply to the discussion: Florida judge dismisses fraud lawsuit against DNC [View all]ehrnst
(32,640 posts)All of the Plaintiff's allegations are assumed to be true to discover whether there is a legal basis for the suit. There wasn't. There was NO finding of fact. The Court dismissed the case.
"The emails showed that they were doing everything they could to help her win the nomination."
I think you were taken in by your own bias.
None of the thousands of leaked emails and documents show the DNC significantly influencing the results of the nomination.
Theres an email by a finance staffer ineptly trying to play communications staffer. But his suggestion that the DNC attack Sanders over his religion, or lack thereof, died without anyone acting on it.
"Other emails highlighted by Wikileaks as evidence of corruption in fact show staffers getting guidance from attorneys on how to comply with campaign finance laws and spitballing ways to respond to attacks from Sanders on the integrity of the nomination process. A look at the inner workings of the partys financial operation, The Washington Post said, reveals that flattery, cajoling, and favor-bestowing [go] into winning rich supporters. The same could be said of almost any political operation in this country.
Wikileakss tweets conjured dark and menacing conspiracies, but these are not borne out by the emails themselves. Take the groups claim that the DNC knew of Hillary paid troll factory attacking Sanders online. The highlighted email isnt some secret communication laying out nefarious plots. Its a summary of a panel discussion on Fox News Sunday."
