Politico reports that it was sent communications from inside the Trump campaign, including Sen. J.D. Vance’s (R-OH) 271-page vetting file, allegedly by an Iranian hacker.

The outlet said that it has been receiving anonymous emails containing internal communications from the Trump campaign. The campaign acknowledged the authenticity of the communications on Saturday, accusing “foreign sources hostile to the United States,” for leaking them.

    I mean, Trump picked him and he dumps him as soon as he has problems and he picked a bad candidate? That just screams poor leadership and weak.

    That was the Trump administration in a nutshell. I wonder how many Scaramuccis Vance will last.

      Yes, but Mooch and others like him weren’t the position of power that a dictator needs as a yes man. Which Vance has promised to be. That’s all Trump needs.
