all right, this makes sense, this makes sense, this makes sense. some of the more salacious stuff, he s right, we haven t seen any proof one way or the other as to whether or not it s true. but i think your question is the appropriate one, which is has anything been soundly disproven about the steele dossier. and i would agree with jim clapper. i haven t seen anything. but perhaps even more importantly, where is the innocence on this? in other words, what is the story that donald trump and his team would actually like us to believe? how do you put this all together? was it, as was just mentioned, it was all just, you know, the most innocent, it being a pay for play kind of thing, or was it deeper, was it s it espiona collusion? because the facts have not been disproven, and even under the best case scenario, they pose a problem. ron, do you think comments like this from clapper are helpful or do they just help the president, as i said before, james clapper,
