Actually. It was. I’m not sure if they debunked everything. But a vast majority was.
Now to put this in context. I’d rather eat a raw turd than vote for Trump ever again. I’ve said I voted for him in 2016. But not in 2020. I didn’t vote in 2020.
When I heard the allegations in the dossier, of corrupt business deals. I could believe that. It reminded me of Rodney Dangerfield in Back to School describing the bribes and kickbacks needed to get a building constructed. I know it is a part of life, as unethical as it might be.
I did not believe the claims that Trump paid hookers to pee on him in a Moscow hotel.
I could believe hookers. But Trump is a man who needs to show how powerful he is all the time. If water sports were involved, Trump would be giving, not receiving. Of course the Fanboys claim I didn’t believe that. But all I can do is write truth, I have no way of forcing someone to accept it.
So my assessment was that some of it was possible. And it was just the way business is done. Here in Georgia they give all sorts of benefits to a business to set up here, and the business signs agreements to do business with the state.
An example. Georgia Ports put up the money to buy the land Hyundai is building their new factory on. In exchange, Hyundai promised to ship a majority of their cargo through the Georgia Ports. Hyundai must know they aren’t going to get preferential pricing on that, and the Port is expecting to make a lot of money on that cargo.
I’m sure the State tossed in some Tax Incentives. And those are just the deals we know about. Who knows what was done to get the County Commissioners on board. I wouldn’t be surprised if some hookers were involved at some point.
I heard a story once. The Thailand Military had a problem. Fully half of their recruits were found to have HIV. Public Health experts traveled to Thailand to discuss the issue with the Government Health Ministers. The experts were met at the airport, and taken to the hotel. At the hotel they found Hookers had been provided by those ministers for the entertainment of the experts.
I assume the public health experts did the double facepalm. For when one just isn’t enough.
I can believe some corruption happened. As far as I can tell it always happens.
