When you ladies have stopped flirting with each other, can we get back to the subject?


"When action has occurred we can all comment."

But action has occurred. We've years of Trump's exclamations and comments, we can see how he runs his business and how he deals with conflicts when they occur and we now know he's been dealing with Putin for some time. We know his views on Muslims, women, disabled people, journalists and the press, Mexicans, guns and a whole slew of other subjects.

The dossier is being taken seriously enough by many people as the Kremlin is a complex and dangerous place, and the power plays within it's walls mean that western analysts sit up and take notice when material like this becomes available.

It might well turn out to be another dodgy dossier, but then again it also might not.
