First, didn't Podestas emails get hacked by a phishing email?
Second, the hackers were able to get into the DNC servers but not the RNC.
Third, the hackers put nothing on those servers and only published emails written by Democrats.

What the hackers did was wrong and they should be held accountable.

Here's my problem,

These people who got hacked wanted to run the country and if they were easily hacked with not very confidential information, how easy would it have been to hack the White House, State Department and so on if these people were in charge?

I know, I'm over thinking this but it is something to think about.

The RNC was hacked as well. They just had better security that's all.
