(27,835 posts)... is not at issue here.
What's at issue is BS supporters insisting that HRC's camp accessed Bernie's data, and offering the fact of their receiving emails from HRC as proof positive that that's what in fact happened.
Is there any evidence that BS accessed HRC's data while a firewall was down? YES - and Bernie acknowledged that, and fired those involved.

And yet this board is full of posts by BS supporters claiming it happened - and, according to them, the fact there is no evidence of it having happened is due to those complicit in the vast conspiracy against Bernie having the power to cover-up such evidence.
"So yes, it is possible" is a piss-poor excuse for anyone claiming that HRC, her staffers, DWS or the DNC have done anything illegal and/or unethical. And yet, many are claiming exactly that.
BTW, it's also "possible" that Bernie himself masterminded the accessing of HRC's data, then feigned ignorance of the operation, and fired three staffers to deflect attention away from himself. They knew it was coming - it was agreed ahead of time who would take the fall, should their actions be detected.
Yes, that IS possible. But you don't see any Hillary supporters promoting that "possibility" as actual fact, do you?
