the record straight, christopher steele didn t provide any proof as to a lot of those claims that he made in that salacious dossier but he did address head-on two of the as yet unproven claims. the first one that michael cohen, the former fixer, former attorney who ended up going to prison that he travelled to prague during the election to meet with russian officials. something michael cohen has repeatedly denied. and christopher steele addressed the infamous tape that he says shows donald trump in 2013 in that hotel room at the ritz-carlton in moscow with prostitutes. this tape, of course, has never materialized. the former president denies it exists but steele stands by the fact he believes it might exist even though the department of justice inspector general said in their report in 2019 that one of the sources for saying that there was this tape actually came out to really be not truthful perhaps. and this is what steele said as to that.
