Trump asks Russia to find 30,000 missing emails of Clinton

Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump infuriated the Clinton campaign today when at a press conference he asked Russia to find the 30,000 missing emails of his Democratic rival when she was the secretary of state in the first term of the Obama Administration.

"Russia, if you're listening, I hope you're able to find the 30,000 e-mails that are missing. I think you will probably be rewarded mightily by our press. Let's see if that happens," Trump said in yet another controversial remarks, which he has been known for during his entire election cycle.

Immediately, the Clinton campaign went furious.

"This has to be the first time that a major presidential candidate has actively encouraged a foreign power to conduct espionage against his political opponent," said Jake Sullivan, a senior policy advisor to Hillary for America.

"That's not hyperbole, those are just the facts. This has gone from being a matter of curiosity, and a matter of politics, to being a national security issue," Sullivan said in a statement.

Responding to questions, Trump said that the Russians probably have Clinton’s missing 30,000 emails.

"They probably have her 33,000 e-mails. I hope they do. They probably have her 33,000 e-mails that she lost and deleted because you'd see some beauties there. So let's see," he claimed.
