The one where Trump just can't stop being Trump

[TheClaws]

Time for a new 'un.

Old thread here: www.mumsnet.com/Talk/am_i_being_unreasonable/2958743-Its-too-hot-for-high-drama-but-nonetheless-we-persist-Trump-cont

Yes, because they've hung their hat on Team Trump and that takes precedent over Team America.

Don't forgot that Trump switched to the Republicans because he said "I could stand in the middle of 5th Avenue and shoot somebody and I wouldn't lose voters". It's possibly one of the only few true things he said.

1. One thing that is getting overlooked in these emails is it describes the communication channel from the Russian gov't to Trump Sr.

1. “I can also sent this info to your father via Rhona, but it is ultra sensitive so wanted to send to you first”

The main question is what will the Republicans do?

Fox news on Trump Jr

Talk about trying to make it sound ok...

It's funny how it's fine for Trump, but Hillary deserved to be locked up.

Cognitive dissonance?

There's a lot of that in the Trump camp.

Just waiting to see how Donald comments on this?

I bet he retweets a Fox comment saying that no law was broken.
Or blames Hillary
Or Obama

Mike Pence's reaction:

Notable for @VP to make clear Don Jr meeting came "before he (Pence) joined the campaign"

Always good to remember when Pence tries to distance himself w/ timelines that he was recruited to the ticket by Manafort.

Remember that Manafort concocted fake travel issues so that Trump would select Pence instead of Christie.

REMINDER: Mike Pence January 2017.

Q: Did any adviser or Trump campaign member have contact with the Russians?
Pence: "Of course not."

We'll need a new thread soon. Trump Jnr. has gifted us some juicy thread title possibilities. Who'd like the honours?

My oh my Don Jr is not very smart is he!

Just the one retweet in 10 minutes....
I bet he's waiting for Fox and Friends to say something

Will he tweet this?

Donald Trump Jr. to #Hannity: 'In retrospect I probably would have done things a little differently'

That chyron really does seem more appropriate for tupperware than a son!

My son Donald did a good job last night. He was open, transparent and innocent. This is the greatest Witch Hunt in political history. Sad!

He just forgot to mention this email chain when he filled in his forms.
As did the others who forgot to mention this meeting.

How many other meetings have been forgotten?

I think he should retweet this clip from fox - the initial reaction as the news was breaking before they had time to coordinate their spin:

Your Trump-telling abilities are strong, orlantina!

On about the greatest witch hunt in political history again ...

This one's good

Mika and Scarborough.

Remember, when you hear the words "sources say" from the Fake Media, often times those sources are made up and do not exist.

But this source is Trump Jr

Translation: I have often pretended to be someone else and provided quotes to the media, so I know more than most that "often those sources are made up and do not exist".

Hope it's not too preumptuous of me:

Great article which looks to be written by a Republican.. not obvious but the occasional turn of phrase makes me wonder...
