In news from the campaign trail, a single hacker, using the name Guccifer 2.0, has claimed responsibility for hacking into the Democratic National Committee’s computer network and obtaining a trove of donor information and a 200-page anti-Trump playbook. The DNC had previously blamed the attack on the Russian government. On Wednesday, the hacker leaked the “Donald Trump Report,” which was created in December 2015 by Democratic strategist Warren Flood. The playbook highlights the DNC’s strategies to take down Trump, which include focusing on how Trump is a “misogynist in chief” and a “bad businessman.” For more on Donald Trump’s business practices, we’ll be joined later in the broadcast by a roundtable of award-winning reporters from The New York Times, USA Today and The Daily Beast.
