Am I missing something?   The meeting took place before the hacking was made public.  So there goes the "He knew he was getting stolen info."  What campaign wouldn't meet with someone that claims to have information about their opponent?   Seriously how many front page stories about Trump and his family have played out?   Three years from now  new threads will still be predicting Trumps downfall.   Any day, week, month, year now....
He was told the RUSSIAN GOVERNMENT had dirt on Hillary.  He went for it.  That is not only illegal but grossly unethical.  Had Chelsey done the same you would have exploded.

One degree of separation from Trump.  And its getting hot hot hot.

There is no evidence to suggest that the promised damaging information was related to Russian government computer hacking that led to the release of thousands of Democratic National Committee emails.





 
"NYT just published in last few minute: Russian govt. sought to aid Trump's candidacy Before mtg happened Jr. was told there would be compromising material offered about Hillary and was part of Russian govt. helping Trump. They have email to that effect. He absolutely knew why he was going"

"Before arranging a meeting with a Kremlin-connected Russian lawyer he believed would offer him compromising information about Hillary Clinton, Donald Trump Jr. was informed in an email that the material was part of a Russian government effort to aid his father’s candidacy, according to three people with knowledge of the email.


The email to the younger Mr. Trump was sent by Rob Goldstone, a publicist and former British tabloid reporter who helped broker the June 2016 meeting. In a statement on Sunday, Mr. Trump acknowledged that he was interested in receiving damaging information about Mrs. Clinton, but gave no indication that he thought the lawyer might have been a Kremlin proxy.

Mr. Goldstone’s message, as described to The New York Times by the three people, indicates that the Russian government was the source of the potentially damaging information. It does not elaborate on the wider effort by Moscow to help the Trump campaign.

There is no evidence to suggest that the promised damaging information was related to Russian government computer hacking that led to the release of thousands of Democratic National Committee emails. The meeting took place less than a week before it was widely reported that Russian hackers had infiltrated the committee’s servers.



But the email is likely to be of keen interest to the Justice Department and congressional investigators, who are examining whether any of President Trump’s associates colluded with the Russian government to disrupt last year’s election. American intelligence agencies have determined that the Russian government tried to sway the election in favor of Mr. Trump."

I said it in another thread, now I understand why Trump seemed out of it at the G20, his mind was elsewhere and he is desperately looking for a way out of this fix. Not going to happen and he can't make a deal with Dems, he has to go through Republicans who know taking down Trump might save their midterms.

Kent Island!
I just LOVE how this has played out!

1. Never happened FAKE NEWS

2. Well it did happen, but so what! Everyone does it. I mean it would have been totally OK with the Republicans if the FSB (nee KGB) fed Hillary Trump's tax returns. I mean what politician would turn that down, no harm no foul, ammiright ;)

If it was before the dissemination (and I'll leave it like that because it sounds so juicy and Trumpian), who says that wasn't decided at the meeting?

Get your conspiracy juices going guys!  Time for a little payback- that most American hobby!

Doth King Trump throw his eldest son under the bus of his ambition?  Will Ivanka stop him? What courtier will take things dark and deadly?

King Lear, Baby!  Or if we're really lucky, Hamlet!  The play within a play!

Oh, goody!

Fake drama?  I think not!

your brillaint incisive prose in these fora no longer belongs to you

you signed them away when you joined up.

All those millions of words I wrote for the BBC belong to them " in perpetuity and in the known and as yet unknown universe" - which pretty much covers it.

Hmmm, call me naive but one would think a country that places travel bans on countries based on their national religion may have scotched their chances for holding the OG's..Trump is less popular internationally than Hitler was in 1936
