Trump can't release the Russian dirt on Hillary Clinton

because the Russians *have* no dirt on Hillary Clinton. They hacked the DNC computers and John Podesta's emails, but they were unable to get into Clinton's private server because she had impenetrable protection. My husband, who owns a financial services company, has a private server which is so over-protected--after all, a hack would give access to millions of other people's money--that I can't imagine Hillary Clinton, who was a US senator and Secy of State, wouldn't have an even tighter program of protection. Trump has been begging Russia to release this "dirt" that was promised to Don Jr. for a long time--I think that's what "DO SOMETHING" was all about--without result that I have decided that there is no dirt.

The Russians succeeded in interfering with our election, the big prize, and now I think they are having fun, trolling Donald Trump by dangling this non-existent evidence of Hillary Clinton's criminal activities in front of his nose. Why, otherwise, would he continue to insist that HRC is so much guiltier than his campaign of collusion with Russians?

Even Forbes magazine thinks Paradise Papers spell trouble for Trump associates

Ties between several Trump Administration key figures, and Russia, figure prominently in the newly disclosed “Paradise Papers” about the workings of secret offshore tax havens. (The papers were leaked from Appleby, one of the world's largest offshore law firms.) These warrant immediate Congressional hearings.

First, the papers have revelations about a connection between a Kremlin-connected company and Jared Kushner, Trump’s son-in-law and top adviser. These ties go through Yuri Milner, a Russian tech mogul – a Russian citizen – who lives in Silicon Valley. Milner invested $850,000 in Cadre, a real estate firm co-founded by Kushner.
