The Truth Finally Comes Out Of Donald Trump's Mouth. Well not the legal part!
Donald Trump Says Sons Trump Tower Meeting Was To Get Clinton Dirt But Totally Legal
Trump admits the meeting was about getting "Clinton dirt" from the Russians.
The president, his legal team and his son have issued a number of contradicting statements for meeting in the year since the New York Times first reported on it.
The Times reported last July that Trump signed off on his sons first response about the meeting. His lawyer, Jay Sekulow, repeatedly insisted that the president was not involved in the drafting of the statement. Later that month, White House Press Secretary Sarah Sanders said he was involved but denied a Washington Post report that claimed he personally dictated it.
But in a January memo, Trumps attorneys admitted that he did dictate the statement. Rudy Giuliani said in June confirmed that its the legal teams final position that the president dictated it.
Trumps attorney Jay Sekulow, speaking on ABC This Week on Sunday, attempted to downplay and delegitimize Muellers investigation.
The question is what law, statue or rule or regulation has been violated? And nobody has pointed to one, he said, later adding that there are irregularities in this investigation, the likes of which we have not seen.
Asked whether Trump would testify as part of Muellers investigation if asked, Sekulow said that they would not advise him to give an interview at this time.
