Yep - one of the dangers of only reading news sources that already agree with you is risking becoming a self imposed:

Correction, Dems colluded with Russians to troll Trump. Unfortunately Jr went for it.

actually the lawyer never claimed to have the documents. just the opposite. it was rob goldstone who claimed to be getting them ( then presumably having them delivered by the lawyer ).
The email didn't say specifically where the documents came from, but said they were "official documents" and later said "this is very high level and sensitive informantion." He didn't say the documents themselves were very high level.

But, again, at the meeting, the "lawyer" had no documents. She had nothing. It was clearly a set-up.

Hannity is known for doing that. That is why Fox viewers are clueless about things.

Well, they needed to create a "link." That's all. Mission accomplished. But they never figured that we would be able to unravel the story and learn about this woman's connections to the DNC, and her meeting with Obama.

Take off the tin foil hat. The Democrats had nothing to do with it.

Let's consider your conspiracy theory, just for the sake of argument. Your premise is that the Democrats had evidence that Trump Jr. attempted to collude with the Russians in June 2016 and they... did nothing with it? Even leading up to election day when HRC's lead was narrowing? What a dastardly and nefarious plan. To buy into this, you must be quite the astute political operative yourself.

Read the emails, not what Hannity wants you to know. The emails are all over the internet.

TRUMP
JR
WENT
INTO
THE
MEETING
UNDER
THE
ASSUMPTION
HE
WOULD
BE
GETTING
DIRT
ON
HILLARY
THAT
CAME
FROM
THE
KREMLIN

Get it through your skull. The "waste of time" comment doesn't matter. He had every intention of colluding with foreign agents. Period. And Trumps news conference during the same time period indicates he knew of this meeting.

The day before that, when the news hit about the initial story about Trump Jr's meetings with Russia, Fox News had a big story discussing the sick UK baby. Fox had a massive photo of the baby with tubes and were discussing it in detail. All the other news stations(and web site headlines) were talking about the fresh breaking news regarding the Trump Jr meeting with the Russian lawyer, because the story was only 1-2 hours old. Fox News ignored the story.
