WASHINGTON – The website Gawker on Wednesday published what it said appears to be the Democratic National Committee’s anti-Donald Trump playbook, which was accessed by hackers in a data breach.

The DNC would not confirm that it had produced the document posted by Gawker.

Trump, in an emailed statement, accused the DNC of inventing the “hack” to provide a distraction from Democratic candidate Hillary Clinton’s issues.

“We believe it was the DNC that did the ‘hacking’ as a way to distract from the many issues facing their deeply flawed candidate and failed party leader,” he said. “Too bad the DNC doesn’t hack Crooked Hillary’s 33,000 missing emails.” Tweet This

He also downplayed the information contained in the document. “This is all information that has been out there for many years. Much of it is false and/or entirely inaccurate,” he said.
