@tommy_pane GP is barely readable it is so full of tripe. The comments even more so.
I esp "enjoy" how the Trumpers have to find some off to the side detail to magnify into a mountain and then use that to insinuate "see...EVERYTHING THE ANTI TRUMP PEOPLE ARE SAYING IS WRONG..LOOK AT THIS".

@tommy_pane 2/ In the case of this article it is the Steele report. And in particular the "dossier’s most explosive claims".
Elevating the 'pee pee tape' as if this were the central and most important claim in that report is so disingenuous as to be laughable... which it is.

@tommy_pane 3/ 1st. The Steele report was never proposed as conclusive. It was a research report of issues to be followed up on. Some of the details have been validated others not, or inconclusive, as the report quoted says.

The important claim in the report was the Russia involvement in

@tommy_pane 4/ election... "Russia, as Mr. Steele asserted, did try to influence the 2016 election".

This is the story you, and the CP as yellow as it is, won't pick up on. That you won't admit. Even though it has been demonstrated and proven repeatedly.

You cant allow it. I get that.

@tommy_pane 5/ To acknowledge it is to undercut the validity of the Trump presidency.
Which Trump understands, always has, and is why he fights so desperately to deflect & bury the fact.
His entire presidency is a sham and a shame. (and a lie,predicated upon lies)

@tommy_pane 6/ The comments you wish me to read are even worse. Histrionic thrashing demanding CNN and everyone be killed, harmed, impeached, set up for treason...

Just f/king bull shit.

I appreciate that you do not, at least in our exchange, to to that level of childish incomprehension.

@tommy_pane 7/ It concerns me a little that you wanted me to read them.

What did you think I would learn?

The Steele report is hardly the most important thing. It was a republican op report, that got thrust into the public square.

Some of it is scurrilous BS, some of it is true.

@tommy_pane 8/ Nothing is won by Trump/Trump supporters by this NYT report.

But this is funny to the point of wondering if you/gp are serious. "President Trump should sue them out of existence"

Please do!!
It would be a pleasure to have Tr have to give account for himself.

@tommy_pane 9/ He won't do it. He knows better. As do his lawyers who are absolutely adamant that he will not testify or get embroiled in any deposition or godforbid actual testimony.
He would get destroyed!
Did you see the one deposition on video? It was instructive.

Trump is a liar.
