While trying to save his father’s skin from the Russia scandal, Donald Trump Jr. accidentally confirmed in a statement that the Trump campaign was colluding with Russia to get dirt on Hillary Clinton.
Here is Trump Jr.’s full statement:
Forget the stuff about the meeting itself, the reason why Trump Jr. took the meeting is much more important. The Trump campaign met with the Russian because they wanted to use information from a government that is hostile to democracy to defeat Hillary Clinton. The idea that Manafort, Kushner, and Trump Jr. were conveniently lured to a meeting with a promise of information that just so happens to match a conspiracy theory that Trump has been pushing is a lie.
The Trump campaign most likely knew exactly what they were doing in that meeting. They were looking to collude with Putin to win the election.
Don’t focus on the excuse for why the meeting happened or what Trump knew. Instead, look at what the Trump campaign was looking to gain from talking to the Russians.
Donald Trump Jr. just made the collusion case against Trump much stronger, because he accidentally let slip what the Trump campaign’s motivation was for colluding with Russia.
