The email to the younger Mr. Trump was sent by Rob Goldstone, a publicist and former British tabloid reporter who helped broker the June 2016 meeting.

How is this not a smoking gun? Does this story appear as big to you guys as it does to me?

Just a single rogue campaign operative, a bad apple son and son in law, nothing more. All parents know children step out of line from time to time. Just last week Barron stayed up past his curfew playing XBox.

Also Tim Kaine's son is in JAIL for being a violent protestor, why isn't the MSM reporting on that? Joe Biden's niece is a credit card scammer! Malia Obama smoked pot. They should all be ashamed of themselves, really, for making a big deal out of nothing as Democrat children run wild over America terrorizing us.

Why shouldn't it be the POTUS?

The right answer, and it would've literally broken her soul to do it, is to go after the guy who asked.

"Say something nice about each other? This isn't a ****ing game, this is an election for the most powerful office on Earth. You need to take this seriously. I do."

In before "Trump has lots of people working for him. How is he supposed to know about each and every meeting anyone working for him participates in, and he surely can't be expected to know the reasons for meetings before they occur!"

donald jr was a small part of the trump family for a limited time
07-10-2017 , 09:35 PM
Don't worry, he amended his disclosure forms to admit his intent to do treason. Move along Fake News media.
07-10-2017 , 09:36 PM
In before Donald Trump Jr. admits he met with officials from more than 20 countries with interest to collude with them in violation of multiple federal election laws, lol liberals, so focused on Russia.

He has multiple kids for this purpose exactly. You don't go 5 unless you plan on sacrificing some.
07-10-2017 , 09:38 PM
Is this the kind of fake news for which people go to fake prison?

Should be, but possible angles I can think of:

1) Continuing with the "we didn't actually receive information so it doesn't count as collusion" story.

2) Claiming that DJT wasn't officially part of the campaign (was he?). Tougher to use that line with Manafort but they could frame it like Sessions did earlier where even if he was part of the campaign he wasn't meeting in that capacity (even though obv he was).

3) Straight up lie about it. Test the limits of facts not mattering. Still need Trumpkins to turn and as long as Trump keeps pretending like nothing is wrong they'll stick with him.
07-10-2017 , 09:44 PM
OK but seriously though, that's treason. I bet Lindsey Graham's statement of concern will be very harsh.

You forgot:

1) Hillary Clinton did 20% of the uranium to Putin
2) The Steele Dossier shows Clinton colluded directly with Russia, not Trump, INVESTIGATE
3) where are all these leaks coming from? We must find the leaker. Comey's memos contained leaks.
4) disclosure forms have been amended

Trying to get oppo research from russkies is treason? I can see lots of problems with this, including serious legal ones, but treason?

Not sure what you think the next steps are.
