Intriguing story about how Fusion GPS - the founder of which opposes Magnitsky- was behind the Dossier.

The kicker is kinda weird: DonJr says he met with the Russians about Hillary, but "no such info was provided." Seems bogus. But.

What if DonJr was telling the truth. What if they didn't have Clinton dirt, but The Dossier? Quite a message.

Trump now says "Russia was against Trump in 2016!" Which sounds like bullshit, right? BUT. What if he's telling the truth, at long last?

Putin was against Hillary, sure. AND he was against Trump in that Russian intel blackmailed him. Let him know how much dirt they had.

Trump is no victim - his life choices led him there, and he will be held to account. But he's right - Putin was *not* his friend in this.

And rather than face the ugly truths that would inevitably come out to the public, Trump chose to betray his own nation. Tragic.

Much of this story makes no sense. But as the details fill in...it's starting to. We can't stop now. </CONJECTURE>

This essay about "these people" may be relevant here. She discusses how Trump always seems unhappy.
Dobby Lessons Jul 30
He always seemed scared, like he was being pursued or forced to do things. In this speech she quoted, he seemed to allude to...
Dobby Lessons Jul 30
...evil forces beyond his control. Perhaps he sees himself as Russia's victim. If they brought the dossier, he would.
Dobby Lessons Jul 30
And-remember when he said he thought Comey was J Edgar Hoovering, threatening blackmail, by discussing the dossier with him?
Dobby Lessons Jul 30
Maybe Trump thought that because he'd been blackmailed with the dossier already.
Sue Post Jul 30
wasn't he aware of the Steele dossier by the end of October 2016? Mother Jones reporting that "former spy" hired in June to investigate
Sue Post Jul 30
ah I see ... this was before it was reported...so theory holds - he HAD to run and he HAD to win or get outed by Assange, er, Russians.
Dobby Lessons Jul 30
If they gave him the dossier in the June 9 meeting, yes. That's before all this other stuff.
Dobby Lessons Jul 30
The exception being the meeting where Comey told Trump about the dossier, obv. But Comey wasn't trying to blackmail him.
Dobby Lessons Jul 30
I just think Trump described it later as a blackmail attempt because Comey is FBI, and Trump wants to discredit him.

Putin played trump as a useful idiot. I think he did the same w/Sanders, but in a less direct way It's easy to manipulate men with huge egos
