Steele dossier author: European leaders quietly "petrified" of new Trump presidency
SalonMore than seven years after the Steele dossier was made public, former British intelligence operative Christopher Steele can’t confirm whether its most salacious detail, the “pee tape” involving Donald Trump and Russian prostitutes, is real or not. But Steele, who is an expert on Russia, says with confidence that if Trump wins the 2024 election, he would attempt to “run America in the way that Putin runs Russia.” I spoke to Steele recently for “Salon Talks” about his new book, “Unredacted: Russia, Trump, and the Fight for Democracy,” where he offered a stark warning for all who treasure our democratic republic. Frankly, if you'd asked me back at that stage, “If there's a full-scale Russian invasion of Ukraine, how long would it take them to overwhelm the country?” I would have said two or three months. "It's difficult to explain why Trump has only really been consistent about one thing in politics, which is he won't criticize Putin."
