At the time, Levin had heard of the dossier.
Rush left on vacation a month and a half before the general election and his stand in had his “former NSA analyst” friend on. The friend maintained Trump and Hillary were both compromised by the Russians, but Hillary knew it and Trump didn’t and that Trump was comparatively far worse off than we could possibly imagine.
Everyone was working from Hillary’s dossier on Trump - even “our side.”
That dossier didn’t play any part in my decision making process. It not for an instant seemed within the range of possibility to me.
As soon as I knew McCain was involved, it was DOA.
