That just talking to a foreign national about Hillary was a crime: conspiracy.
It's actually "worse" than that. The theory is that getting information from a foreign national, that is beneficial to a campaign, is an election crime. Therefore, agreeing to meet with a foreign national for the purpose of getting information beneficial to a campaign is consipracy to commit the crime. There is no need to conduct the meeting, or to get the information, or to talk with the foreign national at all.

Yes, Media Dem stupidity at its finest.

Don Jr. on Hannity from last night. A 40 minute interview.

“Hannity 71/17 ( Full SHOW Sean HANNITY ) Fox News July 11,2017”

Trump Jr is a great patriot and of course innocent of having done anything wrong here. What is clear is how far the Fusion whatever gang, no doubt commissioned by our own CIA/Deep State/Democrat/globalist mob to set the campaign up, just as they did with the Russian dossier.

But this is completely the wrong way for Trump to counter it: http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-4688608/Trump-teased-Clinton-speech-Trump-Jr-set-meeting.html

Not only should he not be trying Clinton through the press—because that means he’s not trying her (or likely Comey or whoever else) through his DoJ and the court system, but also because that means he continues to avoid instead using the bully pulpit to see that the Senate actually repeal Obamacare and Congress cut taxes. Moreover, to target Hillary now that they are coming after Jr, after having toasted Hillary and Bill with praise at his inauguration, just looks bad. Looks like a “they do it too!” defense, which isn’t a good look.

He needs to go on the offense in four ways:

1) focus publicly on Obamacare repeal,
2) go after all this network of actual, illegal collusion against his campaign through the courts,
3) have his PR team get the countering word out publicly, and
4) purge his admin of all the GOPe and Dem stooges that Jivanka convinced him to hire.

‘Jr almost fell into a trap with his different stories’

When did DTJ tell different stories *under oath,* and what were the key differences?

This is compelling evidence of NO collusion. If there already was collusion going on, why would Don, Jr. meet with the Russian lawyer?

You are way behind on this.

Collusion is not a crime anyway.

Dems are claiming that Trump admitted to conspiracy with the Russians to violate campaign finance law, that they admitted to committing a crime.

Is Rush still on collusion?

He is usually behind in his arguments.

RE:”He needs to go on the offense in four ways:

He needs to personally round up the votes.

Instead of tweeting to repeal now (which contradicts some previous promises), he needs to round up the 50 Senators necessary to vote for it.

Instead of tweeting to change the Senate rules, he needs to round up the 50 Senators necessary to vote to change the rules.

He can call them, see them, bribe them, threaten them.... whatever, that's how Obama got Obamacare passed...not just Tweeting.

RE:”Okay. Did not mean to dignify the whole collusion myth.”

Last night Britt Hume on FNC and Brian Williams on MSNBC both pointed out that Collusion is not illegal.

So to come up with a crime the libs argued campaign finance,

If you sent the Trump campaign some links to articles negative to Clinton, that's a campaign contribution. (they claim)

As I posted earlier in another thread:

The notion that Donald, Jr. did something wrong, now being promoted by the Trump haters, seems particularly ridiculous, when one recalls Obama's open mike incident in 2012.

Tactical suggestion: Every time anyone, in conversation, in online posting, in personal correspondence, electronic or in print--wherever!--always couple any discussion with a reminder of Obama's perfidious comment & also reference to Hillary's dealings with Russia & other foreign nations, where it was not simply a matter of a harmless search for information. Also remind anyone being addressed, that Donald Jr., did not offer to compromise American interests in any way. (Obama & Mrs. Clinton, on the other hand . . .!)

We need to take the offensive. It is precisely in the willingness to compromise America's true interests, that the Trump Haters find their common interest. The President's inspiring speech in Warsaw articulated the values that the haters mean to undermine, as demonstrated by their actions over & over again, since the inauguration of Bill Clinton.

Good point.

Clearly Pence and Priebus, who are both supposedly where they are for their ability to wrangle the GOPe in Congress, have no plans to deliver anything to help Trump.

So he’d best dig in and do it himself. (And yes, he should see that as a key part of his job anyway.)

‘Probably trying for a cover up/ perjury issue.’

Do you even know what perjury is? DTJ hasn’t been put under oath.

The crime was trying to beat Hillary.

I read a tweet last night, believe it or not, that said depriving America of its first President with a vagina was criminal (seriously).

These people are NUTS.
