Incidentally, note that it was leaked through the good offices of a Russian cutout better known for selective leaking of DNC (but not RNC) emails and forged Macron emails. Sure is excellent company Sy is keeping these days.
I guess it's unfortunate that the RNC had better opsec than the DNC during 2016, I certainly would have been interested to know what they were sending back and forth during their primary. Whatever it was it probably would not have done much damage to Trump's campaign though.
It's really amazing what an effective sheepdogging campaign Russiagate turned out to be. Sy Hersh reached some conclusions which align in some way with what Russia might want, therefore MK-ULTRA wasn't really a thing or the government wasn't involved in Frank Olson's death?
Particularly important a criticism given how selective leaks can paint a very different picture by leaving out all the responses and reasons the supposed whistleblowing never made it into the report, on top of the past track record in releasing outright forged documents. You're leaping to wild conclusions on the basis of far less than half of a conversation which may never have happened.

If you've read any profile of the muppets that ran the RNC or the Trump campaign, you know the RNC most definitely did not.

No one here said anything remotely like either of those. MK-ULTRA really was a thing. The government really was involved in Olson's death. By... administering LSD.
Not trolling -- I am just curious about how you arrive at such a conclusion.
