Trump and these supposed Russian leaks
The guy is president and apparently getting good advice. The last thing the US needs is a President being blackmailed.
Why doesn't he just say; "publish the evidence you have" that makes them put up or shut up. The ball goes into the Russian court and they have to respond, and no matter what they have they won't publish and we can move on. They will have to come up with something new.
Boy this is a real tough way to start a new job.

Because the first thing Russia would do if they had blackmail material is leak to the world that they had blackmail material and what it was.
The whole thing is a lame attempt at a scam. More likely something designed to further embarrass and discredit the "media".
No doubt Meryl Streep is coming up with a speech against Trump defaming golden showers right now.

Donald needs to get on with the job of being President and rise above the ruckus he seems to attract.

Best article I've found that has dug into the author of the unverified report. Also happens to be from a UK media source.
https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/...-trump-dossier
The intelligence agencies didn't leak the report, it's been out there for a while now (before the election). It was just unverified so the story never got published. The FBI using it in a intelligence report gives it some credibility, enough to get published anyway. Finding out who the author is though sounds like the report could be pretty credible.
Ah finally someone has out done Rob Ford. At least Trump is an easier name to turn into a verb.

How many people would actually care IF Trump was partying with hookers? I'd be kinda disappointed if he wasn't.  You'd get bored wrecking Ferraris at some point in your life.

Did anyone really think the Presidency wouldn't turn into a complete **** show once Trump was elected? The press couldn't have it any better. I don't think Donald Duck could have upstaged Trump as President.This will go on for another 4 years or at least till his impeachment.

Melania doesn't come across as a lady that would endorse naughtiness on the part of Donald. I suspect if she believed the allegations, he would be well advised to stay awake every night or at the very least, wear a metal jock strap.

Just spent a week listening to the duel between CNN and Fox.  Very entertaining,CNN trying to build a case on unsubstantiated and weak allegations, Fox calling them out on it. Think Trump got it right, CNN is Fake News.

I find it waaaay too hypocritical that the Dems are now making the Russians out to be enemy #1 now. 4 years ago they were all having a big old belly laugh when Romney said the Russians were the US's number one enemy, and Obama said "The 80's want their foreign policy back".
And isn't all of this just another indictment on Obama's presidency? All of this spear-phishing & 'hacking' happened under his watch. There were a lot of other real hackings that actually did compromise US national security, but those were in the middle of Obama's term, so all people heard was crickets. The Dems just can't come to grips that Obama was a stunning failure, and Hillary was a heavily flawed candidate that would have been a continuation of the same.
Now they're going after FBI director Comey....

That about says it all, the CNN reporter came across asa total idiot in trying to get the Trump spokes lady to put legitimacy to the claims. " I have sources". Then name them. Former spy, who put this report together on contract, has conveniently disappeared "fearing for his life".

Right or wrong, suspicion has taken root and over the term of his presidency, it will continue to get air time...no different than Donald keeping the "birther" issue alive in the face of real evidence that it was bogus.

The Left will NEVER accept Trump, this crap isn't going to end. Donald Trump hired his son, OH MY GOD. John Kennedy had his brother sitting beside him and the rest of the family involved, but that was OK.
