If it were a conspiracy theory, the content of the leaked emails wouldn't have damaged the Clinton campaign. It wasn't the time frame or speed in which the leaks were published. It was the content therein that proved DNC insiders conspired with the Clinton campaign to subvert the democratic vote in the primary
You say what was leaked was insignificant while also claiming what was leaked damaged the Clinton campaign. You can choose one, not the other

Some Trumps facts checked claims on Oct 10 2016:
- Trump claimed that Clinton “admitted that ISIS could infiltrate with the refugees,” adding, “then why’s she letting so many people into our country?” But Clinton was talking about Jordan vetting the refugees coming into that country, not the refugees coming into the U.S.
- Trump said Clinton wants a “single-payer” health care system, like Canada’s. But the quotes show Clinton advocating building on the United States’ employer-based system to get to “universal” coverage.
- Trump said that longtime Clinton ally Sidney Blumenthal wrote that the 2012 attack in Benghazi “was almost certainly preventable” and that Clinton’s State Department “failed to protect” U.S. personnel in Libya. But a senior writer for Newsweek wrote that, not Blumenthal.
- Trump claimed the excerpts show Clinton supports an “open border” with “no controls over trade or immigration.” But the fuller context shows Clinton was talking about free trade, not immigration, and Clinton supports controls on both.
- He falsely claimed that the speeches show Clinton “wants to knock the hell out of your Social Security” and Medicare. The excerpt shows Clinton supported the “framework” of a deficit-reduction plan because it involved both spending cuts and revenue increases, including to those programs. “I’m not going to sort of piecemeal all their recommendations,” one quote says.
- Trump claims Clinton said that terrorism is “quote, not a threat to the nation.” The excepts indicate Clinton said terrorism is “not a threat to us as a nation,” meaning that it “is not going to endanger our economy or our society.” She added that terrorism is “a real threat” and “a danger to our citizens.”
- Trump quoted the email as saying, “Needs Wall Street money to successfully run her campaign.” Clinton did not say that. She told Goldman Sachs executives that it “takes a lot of money” to campaign, and she urged them to consider the candidates’ economic policies before donating.
- Trump falsely claimed that Wall Street is “where she gets all the money.” In fact, about 2.5 percent of her campaign funds comes from Wall Street donors. Clinton’s campaign and outside groups supporting her combined received nearly 12 percent of their total funds from Wall Street.
Clinton earned
$21.6 million for the speeches between 2013 and 2015. The excerpts were contained in emails to Clinton’s campaign manager, John Podesta, that were hacked and released Oct. 7 by WikiLeaks.
Nearly all of the quotes cited by Trump come from a
Jan. 25, 2016, email from a Clinton staffer, research director Tony Carrk, to Podesta and others involved in the campaign. The email and the attachment say they contained flagged quotes from “
HWA,” which is
Harry Walker Agency, Clinton’s speaker bureau.
