this latest reporting, about a kremlin-linked lawyer meeting during the campaign with jared kushner and donald trump jr. and paul manafort, this is on the one hand just the latest in what is now an incredibly long string of meetings and contacts between people in the trump campaign and russian officials. during the campaign and during the transition. meetings that were all denied. none of which were initially disclosed until the press figured them out one by one and then oh, yeah, one by one they ve admitted to each of them. oh, yeah, i forgot that one too. oh, yeah, i forgot that one too. in addition to that, this new reporting really does include an explicit admission from the president s son who was acting as a campaign official that when the trump campaign learned that russians had launched a hacking attack against the united states to try to influence the outcome of our election, the trump campaign response to that at the highest levels was how can we get in on that?
i don t know. there are documents that are subtle. little typos, there are some weird spacing, that just doesn t look right. it has a date on it in terms of when in the future it can be declassified, that doesn t really make much sense, if it was produced when they say it was produced. the big red flag for us is that the document we were given, this is part of what made it seem so red hot, it names an american citizen. the document we were sent, which we believe to be a forgery, names a specific person in the trump campaign as working with the russians on their hacking attack on the election last year and the specific name of the trump campaign person is irrelevant and we believe how the nsa works with multi-pell conversations we believe that a u.s. citizen s name would never appear in a document like this. even if the typos and the weird spacing and the other odd stuff had snuck through for some
