I am trying to think of a criminal statute for this. Attempted acceptance of a solicitation to freely provide negative facts on an opposing candidate from an individual who has no such facts and does not provide any in a 15 minute meeting. Seems to me the individual showing up for the meeting could have been alleged “Trump cheerleader” Putin himself and we still do not have a crime unless a definitive quid pro quo of government favors can be proven.Oh, that’s right, Trump was not even an elected official and had no government favors to barter.That’s a Hillary specialty.Collusion,you say. Collusion how? You mean sometime thereafter Trump allowed Putin access to DNC systems and allowed them to hack Podesta’s e mails and distribute them publicly and did not punish the Russians. Oh, that’s right Trump had no access to DNC systems and had no authority to punish the Russians. That’s an Obama thing. Was there ever a presidential candidate campaign staff in history that would not take such a meeting including Hillary and Obama?Wasn’t this called campaign politics in the old days?  Now all of a sudden the DNC mouthpiece NYT is trying to create a somethinggate narrative for it.This does not even rise to the level of fake news. It is no news.

There’s no crime.

The Dem hope is someone lied to an investigator - how they got Martha Stewart. Lying is a crime even if what they lied about wasn’t. Weird, bu that’s the law.

Short of that I don’t see anything they can charge Don Jr. with if what we’ve seen is all they’ve got.

Been nearly a year of all this and that’s all they found? Yawn.

But it’s distracted the MSM from all Trump is getting done. Also gives the RINO a reason to sell out.

The RINOs wanted Trump weakened so he won’t back primary challengers to them.
