Donald Trump Jr. on Wednesday cited attorney-client privilege to avoid telling lawmakers about a conversation he had with his father, President Donald Trump, after news broke this summer that the younger Trump — and top campaign brass — had met with Russia-connected individuals in Trump Tower during the 2016 campaign.

Though neither Trump Jr. nor the president is an attorney, Trump Jr. told the House Intelligence Committee that there was a lawyer in the room during the discussion, according to the committee’s top Democrat, Rep. Adam Schiff of California. Schiff said he didn’t think it was a legitimate invocation of attorney-client privilege.

Does it really matter? He could have said, “frick off my dad’s the President”!

None of this shite matters. Trump will never be impeached and will continue to MAGA.

If only he paid attention to libs being interviewed by congress... then he would know all he has to do is plead the fifth.

Thays how you let everyone know you did nothing wrong. Everything goes away once you do that.

As I understand they are represented by separate counsel.

Schiff is a party hack. He's as big a scumbag as Schumer or Pelosi.

I don’t hold much hope in Congressional Republicans pressing the issue but the SCO might be keen on it.

It works that way if President Trump and Don Jr. were talking to each other in the presence of an attorney so the attorney could listen to their discussion in order to give both of them legal advise.
