The "Russian dossier" on Trump is as fake as the infamous Protocols of the Elders of Zion. Like the Protocols, the "Russian dossier" was the product of Russian intelligence services.
It appears that the most exciting pieces of the dossier were included with the direct help of the SVR/KGB disinformation operation. Unfortunately, like the Protocols concocted by the Russian intelligence service known as Okhranka more than a hundred years ago Trump's "Russian dossier" will live for a long time and poison the lives and worldviews of many of his supporters. There may be as many people who believe every word from the "Russian dossier" a hundred years from now as there are misguided people who still believe in the anti-Semitic Protocols.
The Russian intelligence services worked in 2016 in two directions simultaneously as they tried to plant disinformation through both the Clinton election campaign and the election campaign of Donald Trump. The goal of this provocation was to cause pre-election chaos. As such, the intelligence operation was a logical continuation of Russia's "active measures" against the "main adversary," which dates back to Stalin's times.
On the one hand, Russia conducted the disinformation campaign against the U.S. quite successfully. The Russians used the burning desire of the Clintonistas to collect as much dirt on Trump as possible as a channel of communication. On the other hand, Trump's campaign, although it burned with the similar desire to get dirt on Hillary, somehow smelled a rat and refused further contacts with Russian lawyer-agent Natalia Veselnitskaya.
