The Spin

Anti-Trump narrative

Whether he’s the plaintiff or the defendant, Donald Trump continues to lose every legal battle he’s engaged in. The former president complained continuously about the Steele dossier, yet he waited many years to file any sort of legal action. Judge Steyn correctly called out the frivolous suit and his passivity, but that doesn’t end Trump’s legal woes by a longshot. This ruling is just an omen for future Trump legal losses.

Pro-Trump narrative

Everyone knows that the Steele dossier was a slanderous fabrication paid for by Hillary Clinton and the Democratic Party that sought to undermine Trump before he even took office. Even a biased judge couldn’t refute the heinous lies that the dossier contained, simply dismissing Trump’s case because he let too much time elapse. The judge also used various legal technicalities to throw out the case and deprive Trump of having a legitimate hearing. Regardless of the outcome, the Steele dossier exposed the corruption of Trump’s enemies.
