Donald Trump, Jr's interview with Hannity re:Trump Tower meeting

Regarding Donald Trump Jr's interview with Sean Hannity last year after it became known about the Trump Tower meeting, DTJ told Hannity that he didn't tell his dad about the meeting because it was a nothing burger. Well, he didn't know that it was a nothing burger until after the meeting was over (or during it). He did not know that it would be a nothing burger BEFORE the meeting. When he got the email that there would be dirt on Hillary Clinton, he said he loved it!

So, he gets this email, and loves the thought of going to the meeting. So, of course, at that point, he would have definitely told his father about the meeting because he didn't know yet that the meeting was going to be a nothing burger. He loved the idea of what that meeting was going to be about, so of course he would have told his dad about it!

Also, in his interview with Sean Hannity, DTJ said "That was it" when Hannity asked him if there was anything else to say about the Trump Tower meeting. Only later did it become known that there were a lot of other people at that meeting! So, keeping out information....there again, his credibility is questionable.

The Trump Gang is not exactly a Mensa chapter, or even capable of going a basic Google search where they would have learned their adoption story was fake. The Russians themselves stopped the adoptions, the US has nothing to do with them, and Putin can restart them at any time.


Russia banned adoptions by US parents in 2012, a swift retaliatory action for a US law known as the Magnitsky Act that sanctioned Russian officials and nationals for human rights abuses.

The Russians are desperate for money to get their economy moving and they made an agreement with Trump to hand him the US presidency in exchange for removing sanctions and freeing up their funds. It was a quid pro quo deal. This is the digital age and they didn't need to physically deliver anything more than the URL where the data was going to be available.

The Russian spy already admitted that she is connected to the Russian government.
