Why I am skeptical

Let me get this straight. You think that your client, one of the wealthiest, most powerful men in the world, is secretly a vigilante who spends his nights beating criminals to a pulp with his bare hands; and your plan, is to *blackmail* this person?

We are supposed to believe that the Russians pulled out all the stops to get Trump compromised. And that a single spook had sources who gave him the goods on it. And that the story was percolating through the press corps for months; a veritable open secret, perhaps sans one or two details. And Putin, rather than protecting this leverage in his own particular fashion, let this spook run it to the one journalistic enterprise with the balls to run with it, Buzzfeed, taking away his ability to blackmail the most powerful man in the world? And you want me to believe that?

Good luck.
