Trump Won't Rule Out Using Stolen Data in 2020 Campaign

[spanone]

Democratic candidates have committed not to use hacked materials. The Trump campaign declined to make such a pledge.

Nearly three years after hacked materials upended the 2016 presidential campaign, every Democratic candidate running for the White House has pledged not to knowingly use such material should they end up being published during the current election cycle.

Only one 2020 campaign declined to make such a commitment: President Donald Trump’s.

The Daily Beast asked each presidential campaign either up-and-running or in its exploratory phase whether they would commit to not knowingly using or referencing hacked material that appears online on grounds that it may have been obtained illegally.

Each Democratic candidate responded with some form of commitment to not used hacked materials. Sen. Kirsten Gillibrand’s (D-N.Y.) team issued a statement in the senator’s name in which she stressed that both campaigns and members of the media needed to “learn serious lessons from their cyber attack on our election systems in 2016.”

1. Not surprised

The only way trump can win is by cheating, whether it be using hacked material, using Russia again to spread false information to the voters, purging voters, or any other unethical means. Republicans in general can't win without cheating, so it seems.
