Russians Compromising Trump

[Anonymous]

Trumpkins better hope to hell this is all fake. If even one shred of corroborating evidence comes out, he is screwed.

FWIW, I assume the report is a mixed bag of all the rumors and investigation the investigator gathered, so some is false rumor (like Trump's golden showers, eww) while other parts may be accurate. It's not going to be simply 100% accurate or 100% inaccurate.

It was credible and concerning enough that Republican Senator John McCain (no one's patsy) passed it on to the FBI for further investigation. It also clearly was concerning and verifiable enough that the FBI went to the FISA Court, and the judges there found it credible enough to authorize wiretaps.

There's definitely still lots of smoke here. Only time (and FBI investigation) will tell whether there's fire. I'm actually glad it's now in the public eye, because that lessens the chance someone like James Comey (who is looking pretty politically hack-like lately) will be able to bury the results.

The dossier is not the only source. There are multiple sources who say that Russia has kompromat on Trump.

The Russia stuff? Pretty sure that's the truth.

Each time he will deflect ("You are fake news!") and not address the questions. The tactic has always worked for him in the past. So far it's still working for him.

If you consider the existence of a joint FBI/CIA investigation working for him.

Another part of the report states that the Trump Organization for about 5 years was passing along information to Putin's government on Russian "oligarchs" and others with whom Tump may have had contact. That makes Trump an agent of Russian intelligence, folks.

Attorney Gen. Lynch has 9 days in which to name a special prosecutor to carry on an independent investigation. If not, as of Jan. 20, the Justice Department, the FBI and the intelligence community all report to Trump. Good luck in getting to the bottom of things then.

This actually seems plausible. Can you imagine how many Russians buy or rent in his gaudy buildings?

It must have been a long time since you were last in Europe.

They don't check passports on most cross-border trains in Europe or on intra-Schengen area flights.

The better (as in more thoughtful, not necessarily more likely) speculation I have heard is that they have a good idea of what his actual new worth is. Paying a lot of $$$ to get some folks to wet the bed wouldn't be half as embarrassing to him as the disclosure that he's not a billionaire or worse yet, that he's about to go under.

More fake news.

There was a Michael Cohen in Prague, a government source told CNN, but it wasn’t the Michael Cohen an uncorroborated report identified as President-elect Donald Trump’s legal counsel.

Cohen said that he was visiting the University of Southern California with his son and met the university’s baseball coach. A USC baseball source then confirmed to The Atlantic that Cohen and his son visited USC Aug. 29. Cohen claimed he was at the university from Aug. 23 – 29, and spent the rest of the month in New York. Cohen’s only claimed travel to the European Union that summer was a July vacation to Italy.

It seems liberals are either extremely simple-minded, or hysterical, or both.

Honestly, their credibility is already at zero. People couldn't take them much less seriously than they already do.

How's the weather in Moscow comrade?. Real Americans don't use Russian terms like that. Only Russians and fake news outlets do. So you're either Russian or a CNN paid shill.

No, liberals are understanding the disclaimers that came with the publication of the dossier. How about mroe concerning is the timeline and circumstantial evidence against Trump and the Administration to be around the collusion with a foriegn state.

If you re going to say that it was ok for the Russians to hack the DNC and publish emails (as most Trump supporters have lauded) then this is ok too.

Please don't be a hypocrite.
