Seems like a fear-mongering advertisement with no relevant context on it's own. Wikileaks has a political agenda of it's own, so you still have to take their commentary with a grain of salt. It's particularly ironic that they use climate change as an example, what with Trump being a huge climate change denier.
Yeah, HRC has some issues, but I have no doubt that a Trump presidency leads to a lot of social setback as a country, which is a true shame given the progress women, minorities, and the lgbt community have made over the last several decades.

Asking people to read something is fear-mongering? We have sunk low indeed.

No, their particular way of asking without actually pointing me at concrete information to look at is the issue. It's trying to get a rise out of you to visit their site. It's an advertisement.

I disagree. If Wikileaks is fear-mongering there's a good reason for doing it. And as it says, Wikileaks has done a lot more for journalism than the top news agency have done in a century. I would not trust the mainstream media's propaganda of anit-women, anit-imigrant trump ticket.

I mean, I only have to trust the words coming out of Trump's mouth to see that part of his ticket.

I feel there are multiple parts to a human personality.

IMHO wikileaks has been loosing all credibility due to the way that it has been behaving on this campaign. I'm European and always looked at wikileaks as an interesting source of data (with some salt).
