The absolute worst the Russians are claimed to have done is publish true information that may have influenced voters.  If one believes in democracy, one cannot complain about providing voters with true information.

The difference, the Russians never promised to keep secrets, the white house staffers did.  This makes the white house leakers fundamentally unreliable and the information they leak true manipulation.
