"Russia, if you're listening, I hope you're able to find the 30,000 emails that are missing," Trump proposed from a podium at his Doral Resort. "I think you will probably be rewarded mightily by our press."

Q: What date was that?

A: July 27, 2016

Let's look at the headlines for the week prior, what had been in the headlines for a week prior? That it was suspected that her private server had been hacked by foreign governments - most likely China and Russia - and that the FBI was acknowledging that they knew she had deleted using Bleach Bit approximately 30K emails.

Trump said, "You (Hillary Clinton) get a subpoena, and after getting the subpoena you delete 33,000 emails."

Clinton’s staff received a subpoena for Benghazi-related emails March 4. An employee managing her server deleted 33,000 of Clinton’s emails three weeks later.

The FBI found no evidence that the emails were deleted deliberately to avoid the subpoena or other requests. Clinton’s team requested for the emails to be deleted months before the subpoena came. They also argued that all the emails that would be relevant to the subpoena had already been turned over to the State Department. - according to strongly left biased Politifact.

Now, it's odd that they can claim that no one was intentionally deleting emails they needed to keep when StoneTear asked for advice on how to override safeguards built into Exchange to prevent exactly what they achieved in 2014 - to be specific, at 8:29 PM UTC on July 24, 2014.

So he makes a joke about Russia sharing information that we assume they already have - hence the numerous stories the week prior - and you lot turn around and say "he was asking them to hack."
