Trump/Julian Assange are planning an October Surprise Against HRC

[book_worm]

Trump ally and former strategist Roger Stone told a questioner at a recent Republican conference that he has been in contact with Julian Assange, the founder of WikiLeaks, which released stolen emails from the Democratic National Committee.

Said Stone: “I actually have communicated with Assange. I believe the next tranche of his documents pertain to the Clinton Foundation but there’s no telling what the October surprise may be.”

1. Yeah, and the Whitey tape will be released just before the election to doom Obama.

[librarylu]

2. Maybe

the Great Pumpkin will show up.

[MichiganVote]

3. Probably going to say emails show Clinton murdered Hoffa and has the body in her basement.

4. Is that syphilitic pedophile Roger Stone? nt

[underpants]

5. I actually do fear that Trump all along has had something in his back pocket

Something really damning. It's probably just me being paranoid.

[Hortensis]

24. It is. :) Can you imagine Trump keeping anything

hurtful secret? And Assange has not come through with any of his threats of devastating revelations yet.

Look at the DNC emails so far. Although the media did its best to make the most of what was there, they actually helped show how clean their operation is overall. Major corruption: donors anxiously emailing to make sure they were invited to the good parties. Shocking scandal: operative asks if the press could ask Sanders about his religion (no answer, and no question asked).

I think we should be prepared to relax and not grind our teeth as we watch something similar milked for the max profit, somewhat embarrassing but no more.

6. If they had anything they would have already used it.

The only October surprise is that Hillary wi be ahead by 25 pts.

[Gman]

9. Yeah well

Then she only wins by 12

14. Assange waited till just before the DNC convention to release the emails

He sat on the info for over a month. And the DNC did not have time to react. So it ended up taking down Debbie in order to avoid a mutiny on the convention floor.

Assange knows if he releases something very damaging right before the election, there won't be time to do damage control. And it will impact voter sentiment right before people go to the polls.

So no...if he does have something juicy, he'll hold on to it.

There is also the situation that the hackers "salted" the data. In other words they created documents to make it more scandalous. By releasing it right before the election, there won't be any time to confirm the documents are bogus.

7. So Republicans are teaming up with a criminal hiding in an embassy.

You can't make this stuff up...

[lindysalsagal]

15. The GOP will use Russia or any criminal to beat the Dems.

We'll never go as low as them.

[maxrandb]

21. Worse than that

they are teaming up with a "foreign" criminal hiding in an embassy in an attempt to subvert the United States Democratic process.

Not Treason, but pretty damn close to sedition.

Could you just imagine if this were the Clinton campaign colluding with a non-American criminal to subvert democracy?

8. Roger Stone is a loony, Bull Shitter, but even if it's true,

The Democrats will have many October Suprises of their own against Trump:

His tax returns
The fact that he is broke and a Huckster
His wife's immigration status
The nuclear option: the rape story

With Trump, I am not afraid of any GOP October Suprises

10. The paranoid in me worries that Putin may be planning a surprise or two.

We have read, possibly said by Trump himself, that outside events will turn the tide in his favor. Putin may be aiding and abetting terrorist activities for his hand puppet, the orange scourge.

The only thing Trump has going for him is the fear mongering about the crazy in our world. While it's true that he will do more damage than any terrorist event, it will get him some votes.

[Avalux]

11. If they're expecting the "October surprise" to be Trump's key to victory -

good luck with that.

Then again, why should I believe a word Trump or his strategist have to say? I'm so bored with their stupidity.

[Blue_Tires]

12. Yeah, folks... Keep telling me Putin isn't balls-deep in this election...

[yellowcanine]

13. That will should give them enough time to doctor something up.

[lindysalsagal]

16. No one's going to change their vote because of any emails. Yawn. n/t.

[davidn3600]

17. Never underestimate the stupidity of the average voter

[lindysalsagal]

18. By then they'll be blocking it all out, if they haven't already

Only news nerds like us on DU follow the details on a daily basis.

[tblue37]

19. Colluding with Russia to plant Putin's stooge in the Oval Office. Hillary's campaign

should preempt this October Surprise by airing an ad using Stone's admission and Trump's espionage invitation to the Russians to inoculate her against whatever they have planned. If it is true that some parts of the first dump were modified by the hackers, then that should be better publicized, too.

[davidn3600]

20. On the right wing sites it seems to have become cool to root for Russia and Putin

[Liberal_Stalwart71]

22. It's obvious that they will try and doctor emails to hurt HRC.

It's up to us to stay on top of this.

[Liberal_Stalwart71]

23. It's obvious that they will try and doctor emails to hurt HRC.

25. Assange's ratfucking continues unabated...

26. Roger Stone is a professional lair. People should never believe him.

I doubt he even talked to Assange.

[redstatebluegirl]

27. They would have said the same if it had been Bernie. The Russians want Trump.

They need someone easy to manipulate, and Roger Stone is just a nut case, no other description fits.

[Dawson Leery]

28. Don't worry. Assange and Snowden's master will get his.

Obama is already giving Putin his. US Military is in the Baltics with bombers just to make it clear that Puttiepie is not going take over Europe.
