Ah, can you pinpoint when Putin took control of Wikileaks? Right about when Hillary Clinton became the (prearranged) Democrat frontrunner?
Interestingly in one of the Hillary campaign leaks, the plan was to use media connections to elevate unelectable no-hoper Donald Trump as the Republican candidate before turning against him, thus guaranteeing Hillary the presidency.

It seems Putin has his finger in every pie. He even controls the Clinton campaign, the single most instrumental factor in Trump's primary breakthrough.
When it's Trump vs Assange vs Hillary it's really just Putin vs Putin vs Putin.
