Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist Michael DAntonio, author of the 2015 book Never Enough: Donald Trump and the Pursuit of Success, was interviewed on CNN by Don Lemon.
Do you think thats getting to him? Lemon asked.
I think whats getting to him more than concern for his son and Im not sure how concerned he really is for his son because he doesnt have the same feelings that the rest of us have for our families I think hes concerned for himself, DAntonio replied.
Hes very much afraid that whatever Don Jr. said the first time he testified to the same committee behind closed doors will be contradicted by his subsequent testimony, he explained.

(22,037 posts)Junior is a primary connection between the Russians and Trump. The infamous meeting-- and Trump's lie about it-- is a damning piece of evidence.
On the other hand, Robert Mueller ignored Junior. Strange.
Regarding his taxes, I agree with you particularly because they will show where Trump's money has been coming from in recent years. The potential to expose Trump's compromised positions could be a tilting point for many Americans especially if it shows that Trump's policies were influenced by his financial positions.

(32,641 posts)We've only seen the first two parts of the Mueller report. Part 3 concerns counter-espionage (Russia stuff) and the investigation is ongoing. That info will probably never be released to the public but we should hope the House Investigation committee will get to see it. My guess is there's more about Donny Jr.'s (also Ivanka & Jared's) contacts with the Russians in Part 3.

(28,125 posts)How Russia hacked our elections and how tRump benefited both politically and financially and how he has rewarded them with lifted sanctions and Ukraine policies.
Latest is that the Ghouliani is going to pressure Ukraine to cook lies up on Biden's son's visit there. Ukraine desperately need our help, so expect them to oblige.
