Donald Trump is accusing Hillary Clinton of being aware of the hacked emails that are rocking the Democratic party's leadership.

Trump and his VP pick Mike Pence are stumping in Roanoke, Virginia.

The Republican presidential candidate says he's surprised that Bernie Sanders is endorsing her with word of leaked emails that suggest party officials worked against him.

He's also taking jabs at the DNC chairwoman, saying she rigged the system to work in Clinton's favor.

"Debbie was totally loyal to Hillary, and Hillary threw her under a bus, and it didn't take her more than five minutes to make that decision. Man, I don't want her covering my back," Trump said. "She knew everything that was going on. She knew it's a rigged system, that Bernie Sanders never had a chance, OK, he never had a chance. And if you look at it, look what's going on, they're having a lot of people marching. Now, a lot of those people are going to vote for us, I'll tell you right now."

Trump's campaign laughed off suggestions that the Russians, believed to be behind the leak, may be trying to influence the election in his favor.
