I think the hack happened in late spring. The leaks spread out over the next 6 months or so.

Of course manafort worked for a pro-Putin group before coming on board with trump....so... I mean that whole gig is knowing people and getting them to help you. Regardless of party or candidate, that job is black arts.

i think the central problem for Trump will be: he knew there was a leak that could damage the national security of the US and instead of trying to thwart it, he tried to take advantage. It's important to remember or at least entertain the idea (for trump supporters) that Trump really didn't plan on having to fulfill any of these promises because he didn't think he was going to win at that time.

Remember how Rubio and I believe Jeb distanced themselves in a big way when this happened? Rubio was very vocal. He said hacking by Russia (regardless of the target) was a national security issue? I think something along those lines will be what sinks trump.

First release was the day after the GOP convention. I know Trump changed the GOP's Crimea/Ukraine stance in the days before the convention.

Convention ended 7/21/16
First release was 7/22/16

One of the releases was also one hour after the Access Hollywood "grab her by the pussy" tape was released.
