I'm happy to support our leaders as long as they don't support hostile foreign governments, or don't allow hostile foreign governments to interfere with our election processes.

We have video after video of Donald and Junior saying they never met with the Russians regarding the election


Now we have proof, provided by Junior himself when backed into a corner by the Times, that that was an outright lie. The meeting was arranged and the agenda was clear, it was about how Russia could help Trump win the election.


In addition Daddy Trump said clearly in his speech immediately after winning the nomination that there will be big news coming out about Hillary. So OBVIOUSLY he knew of the meeting and the agenda. So he lied. Again.


You want proof, there it is. And we're just getting started. Is it enough to convict anyone? Of course not. But to be honest anyone seeing this and still saying there is nothing to all these rumors is simply in denial.


You should be a better American than that, you should take this very seriously and stop dismissing it simply because it may hurt your boy. That disgusts me.
Hold on. You have to take baby steps with these guys.

The first thing we need them to establish is that Don, Jr. was actually caught in a lie. So my first question is whether Don, Jr. lied when he said he didn't have any meetings with any Russians?

Sadly, it appears he did lie about meeting with Russians.

Didn't George W. Bush have something like a 90% approval rating after 9/11? I don't know what that guy is talking about. Democrats have clearly shown that they are willing to put country above party and stand behind our leaders.

Bush Job Approval Highest in Gallup History | Gallup

What he's basically saying is that Trump should be an unquestioned monarch.

Of course Don Junior insists the meeting was about adoptions... oh wait, we talked about damaging information on Hillary too... but previously Don Junior said he never met with Russians and didn't disclose it on his forms.

Drip, drip, drip... meanwhile, Bob Mueller keeps adding top-notch prosecutors to his team. He wouldn't do that unless he's got lots of good evidence and is building a solid case.
New thread worthy?

Don't look now, but the overseas newspapers are the only ones printing the facts without a slant. Try the BBC, Reuters, Guardian, and Al Jazeera.

Where do you go for news now?

The truth is, we now know it was arranged by Democrats (oh, wait ...you wouldn't know this, because MSNBC or CNN aren't going to tell you about anything that involves Democrats). Fusion GPS (funded by Soros) does opposition research. They were attempting to create a link by the Trump team to Russia, and collusion to influence the election. I guess the were dumb enough to think that merely meeting would be enough.

As Jay Sekulow said, there was nothing illegal about this, and it resulted in nothing.

Of course you people always want to ignore Hillary signing off on the Russian Uranium deal that gave them control of 20% of US uranium.
Source, please.

Sorry all progressives, Trump Jr. is not the smoking gun, that you all want to get rid of President Trump.

The Prez said he could shoot a person on 5th ave and no one would care in 2016. That said, all the people who voted for Trump on Nov 8, 2016 still think he is the best President for the future.

We have no leader. What we have is a racist, misogynistic, bigoted thug who brags about sexually assaulting women, and a proven consummate liar who lies about even those things which have no consequence. He has no idea how the government operates unless he can write an executive order and sign it like a pharoah issuing a decree. He has made us a laughing stock throughout the world, insulted our allies, promoted a Communist country, and relinquished the honor and title of "Leader of the Free World to Angela Merkel". His focus is on lining hs own pocket, not doing anything for anyone who isn't a billionaire or on track to be one. If Obama had done a quarter of the misdeeds Trump has received a pass on from his base you would have been the first one in line with a pitchfork to remove him, physically if necessary.

Not only that, but these were Donny's buddies. Buddies.

Remember when there was no video of OJ actually murdering anyone, but the circumstantial evidence was overwhelming to everyone other than OJ's most devoted fans?......
