i specifically said that earlier, but yes, definitely legendary. looking more like the best troll /pol/ ever pulled, though. up there with getting trump elected
yep and apparently Cohen, the lawyer mentioned in the dossier, has no stamp for Czech in his passport (meaning he didnt visit Prague) and also has a verified alibi that he was in the States at the time of the alleged contact with Russia in Prague...
basically, backing up that line of reasoning is a series of archived 4chan/pol/ posts, in which the troll in question (on nov 1st) mentions repeatedly after a Mother Jones article published on oct. 30th that he successfully posed as a fake whistleblower (he calls it a sock puppet twitter account) to Rick Wilson.
in the 4chan posts, there are frequent allusions to the golden shower orgy and obama's room. so basically it was talked about a lot on 4chan a while back, and it was never taken seriously, outside of the Mother Jones mention.
they assumed it died out, but i guess Rick Wilson passed the info along to certain parties, which are so... for lack of a better word, incompetent, that they actually believed this.
that's not to say there may be some truth to the findings... but yeah, with WikiLeaks' professional opinion, as well as the very immature presentation within the official document, imma gonna call this one... FAKE NEWS (kek)
it's looking more and more like a 4chan troll, btw. sims i posted one of those earlier, but it's a fake. doesnt appear in the actual docs. pretty hilarious tho. my favorite one was the racist remarks and hentai one
so from what ive seen, the allegations are fairly serious, aside from golden showers, which definitely does read as a troll. could be real, who knows.
overall, i think it is safe to say more information about the veracity of these allegations will come forth if there is substance to them.
the lack of evidence is noteworthy, but also the intricacy of the allegations is worth considering. alongside this, there's a concerted effort on the_donald and 4chan, of course, to claim responsibility for this, while spreading disinformation about its source (no source has been found, only claims that it was done on 4chan)
we always knew manafort had russian business ties, so this isnt at all surprising. that being said, im not sure this is enough to make the claim that trump is working for russia; rather, it does seem logical to say russia was working in trump's favor. that much seems clear.
