The two exchanged emails but never worked together, and the man, Christopher Steele, would one day re-emerge in a most unexpected way, taking a central role in the Russia scandal that consumed the early years of her father’s presidency, according to a source familiar with their past contacts. The prior relationship came to light as investigators with the Department of Justice Inspector General’s office was looking into allegations of political bias at the origins of the Russia investigation since May 2018. Steele gained notoriety as the investigator who ignited a firestorm by authoring the highly controversial 2016 dossier alleging links between the Trump Campaign and Russia, and embarrassing incidents involving Trump before he took office. Critics of Steele have argued that the former intelligence officer was biased against Trump and was inclined to produce a negative report on the presidential candidate – excoriating Steele on social media and elsewhere.

I think we need to consider the time frame. And the reality of high level business dealings and meet ups. These things happen and you don't know about it. Getting contact info, friendly business emails. Not the same as "hey let's hangout and party this weekend." So 7 years prior to the election was the last time a contact was made. Professional business contact is not the same as chilling out. I would like to know if any deals were ever made or if the emails were the end of it. Would the IG report go further if it found more info? I should assume that this is it. Right? Well if so, it is basically not much to blemish Donald Trump with. |
