Former FBI counterintelligence chief says documents seem to have been hacked from within the Trump campaign.

Peter Bergen : The documents in question reportedly include a 271 -page research document containing the results of Trump ’s vetting of vice presidential nominee JD Vance .

He says Iran has the motive and means to carry out a cyber hack against the campaign.

Bergen says Iran wants revenge for Trump 's decision to assassinate top Qods Force general by missile strike in Baghdad .

Julian Zelizer : Could it also be true that someone with the Trump campaign decided to leverage that knowledge and leak some embarrassing data about Vance , then blame Iran ? The hack, or appearance thereof, also allows Trump to play the victim — a role he seems to relish, Zelizer says.

Trump is a polished pro at lies and deceit, and the public, even when equipped with the latest intelligence on Iran ’s cyber efforts, knows it can’t take anything Trump says at face value.
