This info was leaked by three who were fine with being identified as "" rather than say "government officials," or some term even more vague.

So what was the strategy here?

Get out ahead of the story and make Kushner look like he was along for the ride when Trump Jr. was tricked into this meeting?

Distract MSM from Trump's 2+ hour meeting sucking up to Putin?

It is NOT illegal to meet with anyone.

Russia is not our enemy. People are doing business back and forth every single day. Just because they made Obama look bad does not make them our enemy especially considering that Russia was right. I have far more problems with someone that got us into another stupid war than the one that was trying to keep us out of it.

And you know darn well if the tables were flipped, and Clinton won and we found out Chelsea did this for her mom, the right would be screaming their heads off and impeachment trials would have already begun.
Of course they would and you would be taking the opposite position. That has nothing to do with me or the facts.

Now this is the only valid complaint I've seen in this thread. Why the (D)'s aren't hammering a valid point but still insist on "Russia" is beyond me.

Get over your hurt feelings and do the right thing.

When Republicans are able to do 3 things with Trump

Kill ACA with no plan to replace or go with their plan which is 50x worse than ACA
Tax plan that gives the rich like 50 to 150 billion in tax cuts and the rest of us taxes go up 20% to 30%
Infrastructure bill which gives like 50billion more to defense

Gets these 3 passed then the just might throw him under the bus Trump is there best chance to get these things passed.

I would have thought it better to get some dirt off of her. Maybe a meeting at a car wash would have been better.

Keeping the Russian nonsense going is paying off big for Trump.
I wonder if he has taken a lesson from the deep state and is leaking more Russian contacts to keep the Yoyo's going up and down.
