The other way to look at this is that Russia just hacked the DNC Files and this could be directly considered an act of war by Russia upon the United States by interfering in Presidential elections.
It's basically your choice: (or both) in this.
And lastly, obviously Putin did this to try to make sure Trump Wins. I wonder how Republicans can sleep at night supporting Trump when he is such a GOOD friend to Putin, especially after Putin took Crimea and tried to take the rest of Ukraine as well?

Clinton camp accuses Russians of releasing DNC emails to help Trump
Clinton
campaign says Russian hackers are to blame for WikiLeaks release of
emails showing the Democratic National Committee favored Clinton over
Sanders in the primaries.
Hillary
Clinton's campaign manager on Sunday accused Russian hackers of
releasing internal emails to help Republican Donald Trump win the
presidential election.
On CNN's "State of the Union," Robby Mook, who heads up Clinton's presidential campaign, told Jake Tapper that "experts" have told the campaign that "Russian state actors broke into the DNC, stole these emails, and other experts are now saying that the Russians are releasing these emails for the purpose of actually helping Donald Trump."
He added that he didn't think it was "coincidental that these emails were released on the eve of our convention." Mook didn't provide evidence that Russians are behind the hack or release of emails, but when pressed by Tapper, he emphasized the accusations came from unnamed "experts."
Last month, the DNC revealed that hackers believed to be working for two different Russian intelligence agencies had broken into its servers and accessed research the party had amassed on Donald Trump, leading up to the general election.
The Clinton campaign is now suggesting that the Russians also accessed internal emails regarding the contentious Democratic primary. On Friday, WikiaLeaks released emails that showed Demoratic National Committee Chairwoman Debbie Wasserman Schultz and other DNC staffers disparaging the Bernie Sanders campaign. (Schultz has reportedly been replaced as chair of the Democratic National Convention over the email scandal.) In one email, staffers dismissed Sanders' campaign as "a mess" and added that his campaign "never had their act together." The 20,000 pages of hacked emails nearly overshadowed Clinton's announcement Saturday that Virginia Senator Tim Kaine would run as her vice president.
Clinton's campaign has previously criticized Trump for his praise of Russian leader Vladimir Putin, a point that was highlighted this past week when Trump suggested that without sufficient financial contributions, the US under his leadership may not honor NATO commitments to defend European allies against attacks from Russian.
Trump campaign chairman Paul Manafort dismissed Mook's comments on Sunday, telling ABC's "This Week" that the allegations were "absurd," and that "there was no basis for it." He added that this was just a smokescreen by the Clinton campaign, which doesn't want to talk about what's in the emails.
Updated at 12:24 p.m. PT to add that Schultz has reportedly been replaced as chair of the Democratic National Convention.
