Andrea Mitchell repeatedly asks Reince Priebus why hackers, presumably Russian, decided to attack the DNC and not the RNC in an interview on MSNBC Monday afternoon at the Democratic National Convention. Priebus said the e-mails prove the “DNC was committing a fraud upon its own base and its own grassroots.”
Priebus predicts the WikiLeaks release of hacked DNC e-mails are just the tip of the iceberg and more are to come.
“Why weren’t you guys hacked? Why didn’t [the Russians] go after the Republicans too?” a perplexed Mitchell asked on the Monday broadcast of her MSNBC show Andrea Mitchell Reports.
Priebus called it “great spin,” but the fact remains that members of the Democratic National Committee, not Russian hackers, wrote the controversial e-mails.
“Even if we were hacked, you wouldn’t see things as embarrassing and miserable as what the DNC did to Bernie Sanders,” Priebus said, touting the RNC’s network security system.
