Attache cases and money?
You are just making up more stuff to support an already flawed set of speculations. We could all do that. Perhaps Castro has a video of Obama taking money and blackmailed him into shutting down the Cuban immigration opportunities as per this weeks news. We can all make stuff up off the top of our heads.
I don't think you realise how ridiculous it sounds to make statements like, "Whether or not the dossier contains accurate information, it serves as a reminder that Trump is uniquely vulnerable to Russian blackmail".
Here's one of mine.. "Whether or not Obama is an ant-semite and is funding terrorists to kill Israeli's and Americans, the secret drop of cash to Iran reminds us that Obama is uniquely vulnerable to Iranian blackmail".
There is no indication of any problems at all. All we have is a set of accusations being driven by a partisan media and lapped up by people who still can't accept the outcome of the election.
I have never seen such an externalisation of people's fears in my life. It's bordering on insanity.
"Question 4: Finally, what's the chance that Russian intelligence has gamed its covert action more subtly than we realize? Applying a counter-intelligence lens, it's worth asking whether the Russians hoped to be discovered, and whether Russian operatives fed the former MI6 officer's controversal dossier deliberately, to sow further chaos.

Has Obama made business deals with Castro while visiting Havana? Remember, Trump moves in the world of organized crime; he has to in order to operate casinos. It is very easy to imagine a scenario that would seem plausible if created by the FSB's special effects unit. It is only your blind partisanship that prevents you from seeing this.

Once again, your blind partisanship keeps you from seeing the self evident truth. Donald Trump would not be the first American businessman to be tempted with a honeypot trap, and his lack of self control suggests he may have fallen for one. Remember, he boasted about groping women on a hot mic. And, again, the bottom line is not whether or not the "evidence" is legitimate, only whether or not it is plausible.
Here's one of mine.. "Whether or not Obama is an ant-semite and is funding terrorists to kill Israeli's and Americans, the secret drop of cash to Iran reminds us that Obama is uniquely vulnerable to Iranian blackmail".
Non-sequitur. Some people do indeed believe Obama is an Anti-Semitic secret Muslim. Why would Iran need to blackmail him? (Oh, wait! That was just intended as a gratuitous snark! Never mind.)

The "problem" predates the election! Even during the primaries, Trump's* ties to Russia were an issue. The dossier was intended to be used in a smear campaign. The fact that the phrase "PUTIN hates and fears CLINTON" is repeated verbatim time and again throughout, suggesting that the Clinton campaign was its intended audience. It was never deployed because, in their arrogance, the Democrats never thought it was necessary, since they were leading in the polls and Trump kept shooting himself in the foot. If the Democrats did posses this dossier, why was it not leaked to WikiLeaks along with the emails?
Remember, it was John McCain, no friend of Clinton's, who brought the document to Congress.
I have never seen such an externalisation of people's fears in my life. It's bordering on insanity.
And I have never seen such desperate attempts to deny the obvious. It's bordering on hypocrisy.
*ETA: I did not proofread this before posting. This sentence originally read : "Even before the election Putin's tie to Russia were an issue." Interesting Freudian slip. The two are now closely connected in my mind.... and I suspect in the minds of many of his Alt-right supporters. Is the issue that he is susceptible to blackmail, or that he is so fully on board Putin's agenda that it is offensive to think he would need to be blackmailed?

So her being dumb and of chitty moral character is Putins fault?
I am not pro Russia or pro Putin by any stretch of the imagination, but I feel like people are ignoring the fact that the US has been invading Brown countries and killing Brown people for the last 50 years straight on top of all that espionage and coups and other under handed things.
As long as no one is casting stones from a glass house it's all good, but come on now.
