“Don Jr. is why Nigerian e-mail scammers keep trying their luck.”

I'm not suggesting it was illegal.

I know. I'm just saying that was a similarity.

It was utterly stupid. He got suckered into a meeting that ended up being about nothing he wanted to hear about, gaining absolutely nothing, while creating possibly the biggest shitshow yet for his dad.

Yeah. I heard an ex CIA operative on the radio today, and he said that they send people like Veselnitskaya in initial meetings because she is connected enough to share information, but also far enough enough to cloud direct connections and create plausible deniability and claim ignorance. Judging by the comments on here it worked.

Trump Jr did the opposite of that, but most of the discussion seemed to place the blame on Manafort since he should have known better.

Chalk it up to a political novice acting like a political novice and move on from that.

I do give Trump's kids credit though for forcing their dad to go with Pence for VP instead of that corrupt tub of shite Christie. That brought a lot of mainstream republicans home and saved the election.

You do realize Obama's chief of staff had his password as fricking "password" right?


Please tell you realize this.

Can none of you take a joke? Instead of reading the article and laughing at Jr.'s stupidity, you immediately go into defense mode about Hillary/Obama/Dems.

The insecurity is ridiculous.

There are posters on this board with all the intelligence of a rock who understand what a stupid move this was.
