I no longer think there are any "tapes" of Donald Trump being a pervert.

The "pee tapes" or the "outakes from Apprentice."

I don't think there are any.

They would have been released by now.

But we get "The latest rumor" about them, and we go nuts.

And they never show up.

Right now the only tapes appearing are the ones from Omarosa.

Otherwise, nothing.

If Russians have it, it's never getting released. Release is always going to be held as a threat.

Those tapes would be so explosive if released, there's just no way they're real. If they were, they would be out there by now.

More effective if they are dropped from September to October 2020.

Christopher Steele is very credible and it just seems like a Trump thing to do. Hates Obama check. The timeline fits and Trump has been unusually friendly to Russia in a way that suggests they have blackmail.

On NBC. Trump filmed a show so in between takes cameras and microphones are still rolling while people talk. There is something.

Access Hollywood was something that got out there.

Releasing such tapes only weakens any hold the Russians might have on him.

They just might release the tapes if and when Trump is impeached as a f you to Trump and America.

No one ever digitally records anything anymore, and if they did, it would be released immediately to meet our desire for instant gratification rather than their own schedules of which, we have zero relevant knowledge of.




Gotta love the New & Improved critical thought... it's a great way to pretend impatience is a virtue.
