Besides, he wasn't disappointed, or Daddy wouldn't have gone on the tweeter machine and started tweeting about Clinton's 33,000 emails for the very first time within minutes of the meeting.
Guilty of collusion due to THOUGHT....

Trump trolls 10 of Clinton's Emails on her server is 1 billion times worse than anything Trump could ever do even if he went on nation tv and shot 8 people. Everyone of Trumps campaign staff is linked to Russia Trump trolls so I do not see anything wrong with that Clinton coughs once give here the electric chair 10 times

Empty taco. Hungry dems are gobbling oxycodone like lab rats as they are frustrated at every turn looking for some red meat crime.

The witch hunt chronical marches on.
Too bad for you that the same can't be said for Jared, Donnie Jr., and Manafort. The 3 principles involved in a conspiracy to break the law. As soon as Donnie Jr. found out the info was coming from the Russian govt. he should have reported it to the FBI. Instead he gleefully involved Jared and Manafort and set up a meeting. The meeting, by his own admission, was to gain info from the Russian govt. against Hillary in an effort to aid the Donald's campaign. The fact that the meeting produced nothing is beside the point.

I suggest it might be beneficial for you to read the laws in regard to collusion if you really do not understand what it is.

Nothing personal, but it has been explained ad nauseum in this forum.

But that is ok. Nixon loyalists didn't get the criminality thing until the very end, and, true story--I've actually heard a few older Germans say that Hitler was not all bad.

Like so many jailhouse lawyers. Only Michiganmoon attempted an answer. The rest deflected, digressed, blame shifted, etc. What exactly occurred - what action(s) - in this collusion?

What did the Russkies do?

How did this cause President Trump to beat Mrs Clinton?

Simple questions which no one who knows the answer(s) should not answer.

Who did what, when?

How did someone benefit?

Well, according to devious Leftist sources: They pulled the brains out of one of the Russians with tweezers, then slowly cooked the brains in olive oil and turmeric, then fed it to the hostile goats on the farm..

Sooo we are 4 pages in and the best charge against what Don Jr did is this
"Jr. went to the meeting expecting to get dirt on Clinton - that's the illegal campaign contribution." by Emma4.

I haven't heard anything that he was willing to pay for the dirt on Clinton.

The fact that Don Jr. took a meeting from a so called hostile government in order to collect damaging info on Clinton that he was willing to pay for thus violating the campaign contribution laws is a stretch.

Bill Clinton gave 2 speeches in Russia and his fees totaled a million dollars. What was said in those speeches and who heard it and where did that money go? Did the money go into the foundation, his private account or the elect Hillary fund?
I know I know Bill was a private citizen then but so was Don Jr....


I still think this new Russian outrage is a big nothing designed to cast more doubt on the Trump admin. and to boost the ratings of CNN and the like.

I am not an obtuse Trump supporter like I was called on another post I just don't see the big deal here.
I want real evidence.

I think the Trump collusion theory has proved to be a big fat nothing so now the Lefty media is moving on to his son.

What exactly are they saying that he got from the Russians that he could have possibly used to get his Dad elected?

Did the Russians give him notes on how to Beat Hillary?

Did they have Hillary's campaign playbook that they found on her private server?

Did the Russians have black mail material that they passed on to Jr. that they then used to threaten Hillary with which made her stop campaigning? She did have days when she disappeared from the public.


Is there a politician or anyone who is in competition with someone not jump at the chance to get some dirt on their opponent?
There is no doubt that if someone called Hillary before the election and told her that they had some good dirt on Trump that she would say "When and Where can we meet and how much is this going to cost me".


I think in the end we will see that this new Russian collusion outrage is a big nothing burger but it sure makes for good press.

If you can enlighten me as to what could have been passed along to Trump or Trump Jr. that would have helped them to win let me know.

I'm still trying to wrap my head around the massive expansion of what collusion is, or could be.

Getting dirt on your opponent, has been in politics since Adam got the dirt on Eve.
There are no laws to violate the 4th or 5th amendment. Government cannot spy, or force you to tell...... On any American.

He didn't need to pay, the information has a value, and is an illegal campaign contribution in kind. Jr's own email was explicit that he went to the meeting expecting to get dirt. It may be a currently unresolved question whether he actually got dirt. Personally, I think that considering Trump Sr tweeted new anti-Clinton information within minutes of this meeting leads to a reasonable conclusion that Jr. was in fact not disappointed by the meeting. He's already told so many lies about it, it's easy to believe he's lied about this too.

But in any case, saying he was willing to pay is the exact opposite of the problem here - accepting the information is the problem because of the value of it.
