For someone who claims to be a winner he sure does lose a lot.

It's worth noting that the most salacious allegation from the Steele Dossier was actually confirmed by the Mueller report:

https://www.rollingstone.com/politics/politics-news/pee-tape-trump-mueller-report-823755/

"According to the report, on October 30th, 2016, Trump’s private attorney and fixer Michael Cohen received a text from a Russian businessman involved in the Trump Tower Moscow deal, in progress for more than a year. “Stopped flow of tapes from Russia but not sure if there’s anything else. Just so you know….” Giorgi Rtskhiladze wrote to Cohen. Cohen told investigators he spoke to Trump about the issue after receiving the texts from Rtskhiladze. 

Rtskhiladze later admitted he had been told the tapes were fake, but he did not communicate that to Cohen, the report says. 

Rtskhiladze’s description of the tapes’ content tracks with the unverified information included in the Steele dossier, which claimed that Trump watched Russian prostitutes urinate in a Moscow hotel room in 2013. “Rtskhiladze said ‘tapes’ referred to compromising tapes of Trump rumored to be held by persons associated with the Russian real estate conglomerate Crocus Group, which had helped host the 2013 Miss Universe Pageant in Russia.”"
