The outcome of this story, about potential dirt the Russians have on Trump, sets up years of either a nightmarish term or a narrative that the President elect was right and the media and intelligence community was and is hostile to the new administration. This is monumentally huge. There is no in between. This is a binary situation. Either Trump is demolished in shame and exposed as a deviant and perhaps even a willing or unwilling agent of the Russians or the media and Intel community looks ridiculous.
As much as this story is being covered, I don't think people are appreciating how monstrously huge this is. Both sides can not come out of this standing. Either Trump goes down or the media and Intel community goes down. This isn’t boxing or soccer. There will be no draw or tie. This is unbelievable and I get the sense that people are treating it like any other oddball Trump story. Its not. What the hell is going to happen if Trump is right and that this is just a bunch of foolishness? That.will.not.be.good.
The media and Intel community better be right on this one, or we are f*cked.
