The men behind the narrative that President Donald Trump colluded with Russia in 2016 to steal the election still believe the dubious allegations set forth in the infamous Steele Dossier, even though the special counsel investigation failed to prove them.
Let’s back up. Much of the information surrounding the Russian collusion narrative game from ex-British Intelligence officer Christopher Steele, who was hired by Fusion GPS (which was hired by Perkins Coie which was hired by Hillary Clinton’s campaign and the DNC) to compile a dossier of dirt on then-candidate Trump. Steele did not disappoint, and returned with a dossier filled with salacious allegations. The dossier was shopped to media outlets, which doubted its accuracy. Then the media learned Trump was “briefed” on the dossier, and it gave them an opening to report on it. Once Buzzfeed irresponsibly published the dossier, which was essentially a campaign opposition research document, the media felt free to run with all the wild allegations contained therein.
