The benefit Trump gets from this is that yet another “bombshell” story turns out to be a dud. In other words, the media machine is crying “Wolf” one too many times, people outside the Democratic party start discounting whatever they say and if there is finally a leak with some truth in it (hopefully not), its impact will be less bc most of us will be wondering if it is yet another media-manufactured lie.
The fake wolf cries seem to be penetrating mainstream. Camerota on CNN who broke the story was even sceptical.
The media is jumping on literally every single thing they can find against Trump, without any type of verification.
They are doing incredible self-harm to their own profession’s credibility.
