“Obviously I’m the first person on a campaign to ever take a meeting to hear info about an opponent.”
Many journalists reacted breathlessly to a New York Times report on Sunday revealing that President Trump’s oldest son, Donald Trump Jr., met with a Russian lawyer who indicated she had damaging information about Hillary Clinton.
Donald Jr. admitted to the June 2016 meeting — to which he brought campaign chairman Paul Manafort and Trump adviser Jared Kushner — but downplayed its significance. “Obviously I’m the first person on a campaign to ever take a meeting to hear info about an opponent,” he wrote on Twitter Monday morning, adding that the meeting “went nowhere” but that he “had to listen.”
Many Trump critics claimed that the NYT report supported the theory that members of the Trump campaign were somehow involved in the Russian government’s hacking of Clinton campaign chair John Podesta and the Democratic National Committee.

Liberals only use two way mirrors and stand on the dark side to do it.
So true!
at ;east Don came clean and produced the emails. Hillary deleted and bleach bitted and crushed devices and still they have not retrieved all of those emails. More then 30.000 missing emails. They tried to set Don up. He didn't fall for it tho. Im so sick of hearing about Russians, but you dont hear about Democrat collusions with Russians to. 20% ring a bell? John Podestas email wasnt hacked. He was phished. He opened some crap that he should not have opened. His own fault. He should have known better!
Well said! Time people get a clue!
