The few that are holed up in their parents' basement are likely playing video games not reading tedious emails passed around by a bunch of old farts. You'd have to pay them to pay attention to this Wikileaks stuff. I doubt any of them would do so willingly.
One the millennials in our family, an IT guy who regularly gets recruited, is of the opinion that these emails could be doctored so easily that it is not even worth paying attention to.
Unfortunately, people believe what they want to believe, and I'm sure they can find validation on the web regardless of the truth.
MSM doesn't really talk too much about the Wikileaks or videos. Hillary doesn't address the contents of Wikileaks. She keeps on blabbing its the Russian hacks! Russian hacks! All MSM does is bring up Trump's touching women 15 or 20 years ago. Its deflecting....old and stale too
They talk about them. Maybe not as much as Trump supporters would like to though.
What's going on here is that Assange has no way to prove how corrupt Hillary is because he has access to her campaign emails and her campaign discusses trivial campaign tactics, not financial transactions.
Now if we had access to every payment the Clinton and the Trump foundation have made then we would know how crooked those two are. Campaign procedures? meh.
Another example of selective hearing by the OP. KellyAnne Conway made it quite clear the election isn't over.
If crooked Hillary should win the October surprise will be that there were so many willing to elect the most corrupt politician ever to run for office to continue the corruption of government. Who knew the country was beyond the point of no return ? Her being elected will confirm that. What will be done based on that information is yet to be seen or determined.
If Orange Jesus were to win the October surprise would be that there were so many willing to jettison the founding principles of this country to install an authoritarian maniac with contempt for the Constitution who is totally unqualified for the position and is only running on a cult of celebrity.
Metadata from the stolen and leaked DNC documents showed hackers had edited documents. For example, "hackers were kicked out of the DNC network June 11, yet among their documents is a file that was created on June 15, found Thomas Rid, a war studies professor at King’s College London."
"A few weeks later, Guccifer 2.0, the hacker believed to have Russian ties, released documents supposedly stolen from the Clinton Foundation. But security analysts reviewed the documents and found that they actually came from the DNC hacks, not the foundation. And some of the information was likely fabricated, like a folder conspicuously titled “Pay to Play.”
"I would be shocked if the emails weren’t altered,” said Jamie Winterton, director of strategy for Arizona State University’s Global Security Initiative, citing Russia’s long history of spreading disinformation.
I definitely don't think it's over. I have said this many time here before, but I want Hillary to be down by a point or so on 11/7. She needs the anti-Trumps to come out -- if she has a big lead, they might stay at home because they don't love her. But then again, multiple polls now show that enthusiasm of her supporters exceeds that of Trump -- who would have thought.
Maybe Trump is like the 1986 NY Mets. Who's the Buckner?
With only 2 weeks left, it is probable that Trump needs a game changer to win. As far as I can see, there has to be a devastating Wikileaks bomb dropping in order for Trump to win.
What do you guys think? Is there a big one coming? Would it have come out by now? If there is one, do you think the public would pay adequate attention to alter the outcome? There's definitely significant Wikileak fatigue, and some of the issues implicated by the emails (allegedly) are too tenuous or complex to be easily digested by the casual Independent voters.
I just feel like there's at least one more October Surprise on each side before November 8. But then again, anything like that would have come out before early voting, I would think.
Very doubtful. Early voting has already started. And even so, how would Trump win under that scenario? Who's gonna vote for him (aside from people who were already intending to vote for him)? If anyone is going to change their vote (from Hillary to Trump) simply because of some random "october suprise" then it shows that people like that are just complete idiots who don't actually vote on the basis of the issues at stake.
And really, last I heard on the media, Assange's internet access has been cut off.

When we would have been arrested for what Hillary has done how did she get off? She politicized the FBI.
VA Gov. Terry McAuliffe, (an influential Democrat with longstanding ties to the Clintons), gave nearly $500,000 to the election campaign of the wife of Andrew McCabe who is the FBI deputy director and who later oversaw the investigation into Hillary's email use.

What if the lesson to be learned in that McAuliffe thing is that nobody who works for the federal (or any other) government should be allowed to have a friend or family member who is interested or involved in politics in any way. That would keep them from having spouses who get political donations while they are working their own jobs, right?
Of course, the alleged link between the donation and the FBI guy, and somehow, clinton herself... is roughly equivalent to the link between trump and pam bondi.. oh, wait! no, it isn't - trump paid bondi directly.
