The Steele Dossier is a paid fabrication similar to the czarist Protocols of the Elders of Zion. Both were used by national police agencies to slander people in order to advance a political narrative. Clinton behaved as expected. However Comey can never restore his honor.
It’s going to turn out that Sid Viscious, Ben Rhodes, and Cody Shearer are the original sources—authors. Steele compiled and not much else. Brennan is in there somewhere as well.
There were no Russians.
