Seems like an odd thing to include in the JS of your presidential announcement page. https://t.co/bA8DeSzeyk pic.twitter.com/vwfUbBLt0M

We don’t know what’s more concerning: looking a source code as a hobby or the plot of “Die Hard” written in the javascript of a presidential candidate’s website.
Well, in all seriousness neither is all that concerning. New York Times journalist Jeremy Bowers explains, “Besides spoiling the “Die Hard” movies for people who haven’t seen them, the inclusion of the scripting files — something of a joke among the campaign’s programmers — does nothing to compromise the function of Mr. Bush’s website.”
In fact, he added, the code for Hillary Rodham Clinton’s site features an ASCII-art version of her campaign logo, and the page source for Rand Paul’s site includes a pitch to join the campaign’s tech team.
