169. Them dropping in face of a lawsuit puts that in a odd light...

Sat Dec 19, 2015, 01:21 PM

Dec 2015

If they actually had proof of wrongdoing, they wouldn't have backed off.

So knowing the above - That they had no proof, whatsoever, of any wrongdoing - it puts their desire for a time consuming full audit into question.

The full audit would have been, in part, to determine exactly what information was taken. They had been 'saying' that info was taken, but they didn't know exactly what was taken. As the lawsuit progresses, they would have had to reveal their proof showing that info was taken. Them backing off after the lawsuit threat no longer requires them to 'actually' show their proof. In comparison, they can have a 'anonymous' person releasing whatever statements they want to the media.

Of course, I suppose they could have backed off due to the other fires they need to put out - That is, why they hired a firm with close ties to the Clintons, which is a massive conflict of interest, and why they revoked data access to the Sanders campaign in direct violation with their own rules.
