It's basically the media cycle has a bunch of fresh fodder other than HRC e-mails. It takes some of the focus off of her and onto other things. Keeps Trump scandals fresh in peoples minds, etc.

I think its not necessarily about moving the needle, but reminding people that Trump is trump and getting the news network chomping on some new stuff.

how anybody could need a reminder that trump is trump at this point i do not know. it's just weird because it's just a tilty-whirl of "oh no, the media is talking bad stuff about hillary! oh yes, we got it back, they are talking about bad trump stuff now!" and it's like, part of the problem is that the media just latches onto shiny things and everything is soundbytes and everything is just weird as hell and i'm going to vomit.

So this has been talked about, right? Because I have a Computer Engineering degree, and I'm a little lost here. Which probably means it's too complicated to gain traction. Need a one paragraph sexy description of what happened.

what would own is if Trump pulls a classic Trump and rants at a rally tomorrow about every single item that just dropped and give it all oxygen

getting the media's attention back on trump's taxes and the nerds' attention back on his obvious russian connection in one move is actually really good

Idk about you but I think Trump Has A Private Server Exchanging Secrets With Putin is a big fuckin deal and since the FBI is involved awe're going to get even more leaks to further flesh out the Trump Is A Literal Manchurian Candidate part.

It also neatly ties in with the tax stuff because Trump could quickly shut this up by showing us his tax returns. Instead he'll whine about it and probably praise Putin some more in a rally tomorrow.

I think it is more that it is super technical to actually describe the evidence, much harder than him on video tape saying "Go email Putin and ask him for help"

Trump organization had a server that required a whitelist to ping, and almost exclusively exchanged data with a Russian Bank server, which has extremely close ties to Putin. A lot of smoke and circumstantial evidence

In absolute fairness, denying all outside ping attempts except for whitelisted entries is just good policy for any server that's going to face the outside world.

Trump is absolutely a Russian puppet though, christ he is dumb too.

There's also this.

I think you can shotgun stuff like this all week and catch a few news cycles here and if it gets the whole story off of hillary e-mails even for an hour or two its worth while.

That said I don't think the HRC stuff actually moves the needle much but whatevs

the only thing I can piece together is that they don't want to get sued if Trump loses and gulag'ed if he wins, but that's maybe being overly generous

95+% of people who use computers on a daily basis won't understand what DNS or pinging a server means
