Pet peeve: the word you wanted there is "drivel", not "dribble".
That aside, you didn't shoot down ANYTHING.
What trump said about the intelligence reports that Russia was paying bounties on our soldiers: "It was never brought to my attention. I think it's another
Russia hoax."
Later, in a phone call with Vladimir Putin, he says he never brought the matter up, even though the reports were quite disturbing, even though he was supposed to be Commander in Chief of those soldiers, even though his first duty as a president was to protect Americans...
HE NEVER BROUGHT IT UP?
It doesn't matter to his asskissing if our intelligence community changes its opinion twelve months later (although just as then they still classify the intelligence as "uncorroborated"). He, himself, didn't know any better, and he, himself, didn't even bother to ask Vladimir about it.
How was that "standing toe to toe" with Vladimir Putin? He kissed Putin's ass by trying to avoid the topic.
