do you get the impression that the country is in the hands of a family with a second grade mentality.

NYT forces Donny Jr. to release the emails.

I don't know if the Trumps are as dumb as they seem. I think it's more of a case of them being spoiled rotten all their lives and being sheltered that makes them lack the gene that asks "Should I really be doing this AND putting it in writing?".

How will Trump and his people spin this?

1. "No Russian collusion #FAKENEWS" (Pretend the failing NYT made the whole thing up.)

2. "Who cares? We didn't get any useful dirt on Hillary from the collusion, so we're in the clear." (In the same way those To Catch a Predator guys are in the clear because when they show up for their "date" there's only Chris Hansen waiting for them.)

3. "Okay, there was Russian collusion. Big whoop. If Hillary was smart she would have thought of it first, but she's not, and that's why today I'm President and she's bleeding from her whatever." (The Sucks to be You, Loser defense.)

they will have to check all incoming emails to both trumps and potus trump's assistant rana...the main email may have been sent to rana also.....all3 .....jr.....jared.....manafort..went to get dirt from russia.......can anyone believe trump sr is sgt schultz.

Fredo Trump is manning up, he's going to face the music tonight during an exclusive interview with Sean Hannity. Gonna see some hard-hitting two-fisted journalism there, none of that #FAKENEWS stuff we've been hearing so much about.

First male to male blow job ever on basic cable. I know moy will not miss that!

Hannity will be slobbering over the Dump's until the bitter end.

fox and fiends

On July 24, 2016, a month after the meeting with Natalia Veselnitskaya to get dirt on Hillary, Trump Jr. appeared on CNN’s State of the Union and proclaimed the notion that Russia wanted to help his father “phony” and “disgusting."

Phony and disgusting. Good words.

i love it......tonight he will claim transparency....but he released the email chain because the NYT told him they were going to release alt the emails...so he got ahead of it to seem transparent.....
in the end there will be a debate...who was more evil....... trump or nixon.
there will be blood and there will be books.
trump cannot comment on the emails or may open himself up...lying via official govt documents...he may have recieved a copy of the email from the sender..who said he wanted to send it to don jr first. before sr....there is an implcation it was sent to trump's longtime asst rona.

The transparency brag is especially hilarious. You almost have to admire how shameless the Trump family is.

flynn - flipping
manafort - flipping
stone - flipping bird
junior - flippant nazi
potus - flipping out

I don't usually respond to you rjj because frankly you don't seem all there, but I'll make an exception for this "goofball lawyer" post.

Natalia Veselnitskaya was introduced to Trump Jr. by his friend Rob Goldstone as a "Russian government attorney" who was offering the Trump campaign dirt on Hillary. Goldstone wrote: "The Crown prosecutor of Russia met with his [Emin Agalarov's] father Aras this morning and in their meeting offered to provide the Trump campaign with some official documents and information that would incriminate Hillary and her dealings with Russia and would be very useful to your father. This is obviously very high level and sensitive information but is part of Russia and its government's support for Mr. Trump."

This not fake news -- this is from Trump Jr.'s. Twitter feed. Everything bolded above is from Trump Jr.'s emails.

Now, whether any of what Goldstone told Trump Jr. is true or not remains to be seen, but this is how the woman was presented to Trump Jr. And how did he respond? Did he tell his friend to get lost? Did he inform the FBI?

No, he said he loved it, and set up a meeting with the woman. And invited Manafort and Kushner, to boot.

And for some reason that's okay with Trump supporters like you.
