Urine trouble now, Trump--fake news or damning dossier?

My own guess -- though it is only a guess, and he and his campaign are innocent of these allegations until proven guilty -- is that some of the information is true. I say this mostly because the source is apparently sufficiently credible to John McCain and others to make it worth passing on and discussing with Trump.

Honestly, it's not at all difficult for me to picture Trump having romps with prostitutes. And it's not all that difficult for me to imagine someone, somewhere, on Trump's campaign taking some information from Russian contacts that might be helpful to Trump.

However, I'm guessing that much of the stuff in the dossier also turns out to be false and/or unverifiable.

And I'm guessing that unless (perhaps) every word turns out to be true and proven so with indisputable evidence, it doesn't hurt Trump one bit.


ETA:


I will also add this, assuming any of the info turns out to be true:  

As far as the prostitute stuff goes, I'd find it embarrassing that the president had engaged in such exploits, but I'd consider it primarily Melania's business and not mine.  I just don't care all that much about sexual exploits as a political matter, provided they are between consenting adults (and not against the law the political figure is supposed to be upholding).

As far as the conspiring with Russia on the election goes, if it was confined to people on Trump's campaign and not Trump himself, the guilty party or parties should bear the punishment, and Trump should immediately condemn the action and distance himself.  If it were to turn out that Trump had knowledge of it, though, I'd be expecting to hear calls for impeachment.

So -- would that be a vote for "the whole thing is fake"?

(That wouldn't shock me either, by the way.)

Yes, that wouldn't surprise me, either.  

Piss on 'em all, I say.

At this point, Pence would become President.

If nothing else, wee will be able to collect a stream of crappy puns from this dossier.

Are we sure they kept a straight face?  I'm picturing it more like this:

I can't argue with any of that; I wish I could.  My only quibble might be to insert a "some" in your last sentence ("maybe some people will become as discerning...").  Because, alas, I imagine many will continue to devour news from dubious sources.

Yes, I agree Buzzfeed is a suspect source.  That said, I haven't yet seen anyone coming out and denying it is in fact the dossier McCain passed on to the FBI.
