. while the former DCIA (Brennan) was publicly undermining the potential PEOTUS while pushing unvented information everywhere. again, yikes.
. ..a lot of 'ifs' but remember the dossier contained false info & other prior info passed on about PEOTUS was not deemed untoward by FBI...
. ..could it be that disdain for the potential PEOTUS and individual vanity just compromised high level sources within Russia..
. ..while inadvertently maligning an American citizen who was running 4 office being mislead by false info from sources with duel interests?
