"Was it maliciouls intent by a nefarious party to promote an agenda?"

I think it may be, simply releasing information to mass public is part of the agenda I would say.

"Perhaps it wsa to get someone indebted to Russian banks elected"

I am not sure how much impact of leak had on the election results. There is no concrete evidence of it.

Re: Not a single event
"This was not a one off, it was part of a series of attacks and leaks designed to aid a specific candidate for President of the US."

I would agree. US does the similar information gathering we just do not release it to the media. :--))

Re: Politically motivated, likely. But could it be an inside job?
"But the real question should focus on how to secure systems and data not the 'who done it and why?'"

I do not disagree. However, I do think that we need to know who and why to enforce accountability and responsibility.

"The computer systems as well may have had a cyber mole who surreptitiously leaked access or took the files"

I agree. I may even be the case that information is shared from inside.

"What was the motivation for the DNC leak?"

How about just making the news? Anything unknow disclosed would get attention from the readers.

Email Leak Was Deliberate Act?
What am I missing here? I do not know how leaked emails could not be deliberate. This I not like an oil pipe leaking. Of course, it is deliberate.

Everything You Need to Know About DNS Attacks
It's important to understand DNS, potential attacks against it, and the tools and techniques required to defend DNS infrastructure. This report answers all the questions you were afraid to ask. Domain Name Service (DNS) is a critical part of any organization's digital infrastructure, but it's also one of the least understood. DNS is designed to be invisible to business professionals, IT stakeholders, and many security professionals, but DNS's threat surface is large and widely targeted. Attackers are causing a great deal of damage with an array of attacks such as denial of service, DNS cache poisoning, DNS hijackin, DNS tunneling, and DNS dangling. They are using DNS infrastructure to take control of inbound and outbound communications and preventing users from accessing the applications they are looking for. To stop attacks on DNS, security teams need to shore up the organization's security hygiene around DNS infrastructure, implement controls such as DNSSEC, and monitor DNS traffic
