#1 - Hillary didn’t pay for the dossier.
#2 - What if she did? The only thing that matters is if it is true. And none of it has been proven false.
You can't claim positive proof with negative evidence...Even a room-temperature IQ hack like you should be able to understand that.
Negative evidence is evidence that can't be proved and as such not positive proof
linking that statement to the dossier is incorrect as there are points in the dossier that were proven to be true and there were some points in the dossier that cannot be proven.
Dossier does not have to be true as it is just unsubstantiated allegations much like any initial report of a crime to law authorities
It is up to the investigating agency to find the evidence which supports the allegations thus making the case for prosecution
the indictment of 12 officers of the Russian Main Intelligence Directorate of the General Staff (GRU) came from information in the Steel dossier and were found to be true which resulted in the indictment .
The dossier also reported the plan to hack and the hacking attempts of the DNC and democratic party which was found to be true
Thus the clinton emails were released and with Trump statement that he hopes Russian finds these emails and hours later they are released. The case for collusion is being made with involvement of Roger Stone, Corsi, and others.
The Moscow project was in the dossier and when Trump lied about it it was proven that it was a lie
Even Cohen involvment and carter page involvements were in the the dossier.
The dossier was a road map for Mueller and he was able to prove and get admissions of guilt that made his case.
It is like she said the thing that matters is if its true
If it was false then it cannot be proven and will be dropped by the investigation
That why repubs couldn't touch Hillary because none of the allegation could be proven to rise to the level of being a crime that should be charged against her
Even the IG review agreed that Hillary should not be charged yet they blasted comey.
So in the case of Hillary "Negative evidence is evidence that can't be proved and as such not positive proof" but it doesn't stop repubs
