after it's been released, it's out there and loses a lot of its effectiveness in that regard. Not saying they have anything, but that's why one might "sit on it".

Please explain why this message is being reported.

if Russia's goal is to disrupt the US anyway they can - tigerinhogtown STL - 7/17 13:10:42

What would be more distruptive? - tigerdb MU - 7/17 13:36:15

Why would they release it? - raskolnikov MU - 7/17 13:14:36

they love chaos more, they'd love Pence too(nm) - tigerinhogtown STL - 7/17 13:15:23

Why would they oust a POTUS who apologizes for them? - Badird MU - 7/17 13:12:28

because disruption of the nation suits their purpose better - tigerinhogtown STL - 7/17 13:14:35

Trump will disrupt the nation himself far more than his - Badird MU - 7/17 13:17:13

So Russia is just going to sit on all of this dirt - Sal KC - 7/17 13:14:14

It's amazing how clueless they are (nm) - Sal KC - 7/17 13:25:13

If they have dirt - mizzoumurfkc MU

- 7/17 13:23:27

Your logic makes zero sense - Sal KC - 7/17 13:24:52

Why do they have to? - mizzoumurfkc MU

- 7/17 13:30:15

So they're just saving it for a rainy day? (nm) - Sal KC - 7/17 13:44:30

Why would they need to release anything at this point, Sal? - mizzoumurfkc MU

- 7/17 14:07:51

I'd think he want to at least threaten - Sal KC - 7/17 14:10:35

And he absolutely gained nothing. (nm) - Badird MU - 7/17 13:24:00

and neither did Russia - Sal KC - 7/17 13:26:42

Russia gained legitimacy in their attacks. - Badird MU - 7/17 13:30:18

They were sanctioned as a direct result of it - Sal KC - 7/17 13:36:40

Exactly - mizzoumurfkc MU

Can't blackmail if there is no threat - Mormad MU - 7/17 13:15:49

they don't care who the President is as long as we are - tigerinhogtown STL - 7/17 13:16:58

100% correct (nm) - Sal KC - 7/17 13:17:44

100% correct. Trump causes more of that than impeachment - Badird MU - 7/17 13:22:06

lol, no (nm) - Sal KC - 7/17 13:23:53

If you say so. (nm) - Badird MU - 7/17 13:24:14

They are doing a terrible job at blackmailing Trump then - Sal KC - 7/17 13:16:53

How so? Continuation of the sanctions? - Mormad MU - 7/17 13:24:49

They were new sanctions, not continued ones - Sal KC - 7/17 13:26:06

trump is a clown, but I fear he's bowing to the warhawks - dangertim MU

- 7/17 13:27:24

To clarify, Trump will do more harm than Pence. - Badird MU - 7/17 13:13:53

Do more harm to who/what? - Sal KC - 7/17 13:15:39

BRUTAL!?! AHAHAHAHAHAHA(nm) - Badird MU - 7/17 13:16:49

Sanctions, freezing assets, kicking diplomats out, - Sal KC - 7/17 13:17:29

There are fewer sanctions now. It is costing Russia less. - Badird MU - 7/17 13:21:02

Trump has been far more harsh on Russia - Sal KC - 7/17 13:23:31

When did we do this? I don't recall anything of that nature - Mormad MU - 7/17 13:26:56

New sanctions were imposed approximately - Sal KC - 7/17 13:39:39
