Protest much?

I have always been skeptical of the Pee tape story. It just seemed to good to be true. The David Corn and Michael Isikoff book provided some evidence that Trump had visited sex clubs in Moscow where the practice was part of a wild stage show, so maybe it briefly tickled his fancy. But it just didn’t seem like him .

But who knows? People have kinks. And after reading this last night, I kind of think it might be one of his. If there’s one thing about Trump, if he’s obsessed with something and denies it too vociferously it’s almost certainly true:

Former President Donald Trump went off on a bizarre tangent on Thursday where he denied enjoying “golden showers” and even suggested that former first lady Melania Trump would agree it’s not something he’d like.

“I’m not into golden showers,” Trump said unprompted in a private speech at the National Republican Senatorial Committee retreat, according to The Washington Post. “You know the great thing, our great first lady — ‘That one,’ she said, ‘I don’t believe that one.’”

Trump was referring to one of the most salacious allegations in the unverified dossier compiled by former British spy Christopher Steele: the existence of a so-called “pee-pee tape.” The dossier claimed that Trump, while staying at the Ritz-Carlton in Moscow in 2013, hired prostitutes to perform a golden showers show on the hotel bed, where then-President Barack Obama had previously stayed.

Ex-FBI director James Comey, who was famously fired by Trump, wrote in his book that the former president had an obsessive interest in the allegation.

“I’m a germaphobe,” Trump told him, per the book. “There’s no way I would let people pee on each other around me. No way.”

He did it.
