with the Russians?

If Trump was colluding with the Russians then he would have had someone on the inside who he could have discussed this woman with and could have easily have figured out that this woman was not working on behalf of the Russian government and had nothing to offer with respect to "dirt" on sHitlary. This would have all been done before any meeting.

I mean, if you are seriously colluding with the Russians, wouldn't Trump had called his "point man" and asked who this woman is and why is she calling "outside the chain of command"?

This question is the difference between the majority of conservatives vs. the majority of liberals.

This is a logical question. And, every time it is posed, the liberals run from it because they truly didn't realize it and because they think they are winning on the issue anyway.

That takes a couple layers of thought.

The "SQUIRREL!" Approach Is easier..

Maybe. So that just leaves Jr being stupid and gullible as hell, and a bald faced liar.

Potentially conspiracy to collude, which seems like a massive stretch. The only thing I've heard that possibly has any weight to it was on NPR this morning when they were saying it might be a foreign campaign contribution. Frankly I'd love to see that can of worms opened.

you mean like his presidential campaign manager or something?

because, yes, Paul Manafort was also at the meeting, along with Jared Kushner.

great job at disproving your own point.

No, it proves they were.

Reasoning backwards from the assumption that Trump always does things competently is pretty fraught.

Pretty retarded conclusion there bro. And you getting so mad about people pointing it out!

It does not "prove" anything either way. Trump admin collusion could have been much more loosely coupled than you are alluding too and most likely would be given the prospect of being surveilled by the NSA. You act as though collusion means a fricking bat phone between Putin and Trump.

TRY AGAIN BITCH
