I actually agree that Trump may have leaked this, but BECAUSE there's nothing there, the story has NO LEGS and thus ISN'T a big distraction.

It's. One. Night! IF there was more there, this story would last for many days. Now we will hope for more leaks, but the story ends likely after tomorrow's show.

Can we not overreact?
