It's still a joke. Even if he is Russian (which is a very convenient boogieman), the fact is he DID expose corruption in US parties.

He may be partisan, he may not be revealing damaging info about Russia. But if the information is true, so what? Shouldn't we be doing something about the corruption he revealed regardless of why he revealed it? I can't believe all you have to do is say the R-word and suddenly people are just willing to ignore everything he says, its ridiculous. Like uhh enemies of the US are more likely to expose damaging information about them as compared to allies, no shit?

4 or 5 people at the top of the DNC resigned because of saying mean things about Sanders and invitations to avante garde art shows? That's not how it works.

It really is though.

The appearance of impropriety is still important to some folks though, so when private emails (that didn't lead to rigging an election, something the DNC has no power to do anyway) that show that folks in the DNC favored one candidate over the other, they resigned.

This isn't the same thing as admitting the impossible (that the DNC somehow got HRC ~4 million more votes)
