Assange has publicly stated that he doesn't want HRC to become president. He hasn't officially supported Trump, considering the choice between Clinton & Trump the same as choosing between cholera and gonhorrea.

As to why there's nothing on Trump, it may be anything. Actual support indeed, or just no documents coming up on the republic party.

It looks like anyone with stuff to leak about Trump is choosing to send it to either the mainstream press or the Clinton campaign at the moment, both of which can be relied on to use it for maximum damage. Even if Wikileaks was willing to publish anti-Trump documents and spin them as evidence of the most dastardly deeds possible, why send them there when the NYT will do the same with a much bigger, more trusting audience?
