That's an ongoing story I guess, but would I be surprised political campaigns are somehow influenced by other countries or people in other countries? Not really. Didn't the DNC get the Trump dossier from Russia? My memory is a little fuzzy on that. I think that's what got this FBI thing started. |
The Dossier was funded first by some conservative mag trying to get dirt on Trump from Fusion GPS. I guess after a while they decided to go for Trump and dropped support for the Dossier. The DNC and Hillary picked up the funding for it. Some ex Brit spy came on board and finished up the research on the dossier. Actually it was not the Dossier that got things started it was George Stephanopoulos who got the whole thing started by telling some Aussie Trump acquired dirt on Hillary from some Russian government source and the person he told, spilled his/her guts to the CIA or FBI. Since this was at the time when the DNC was getting hacked, it was believed that Trump and some Russian Government source was spearheading the hacks and this is what jumped things off.
