I kind of disagree about the wikileaks emails, everything I've read that's been pushed by Trump supporters as being horrible is hardly more than typical campaign stuff. Even the worst of it like "Needy Latinos" isn't a racist comment or a comment on latinos' character, it's in context of groups of leadership during the campaign wanting/needing attention. The stuff about the Catholic church seems like nothing as every person in the email exchange is Catholic, it's talking about Catholics being backwards on gender relations (which many Catholics would agree with), Clinton wasn't even copied, and Podesta didn't respond.
It's all very boring. The "worst" one I've seen is Clinton's stance on wanting a more open western hemisphere while now supposedly opposing the TPP, which at worst is flip-flopping which politicians do all the time. That's one where Trump's campaign could be hitting Clinton hard on.
The Podesta emails are nothing more than people trying to find tempests in teapots so far.
