5:28Now PlayingPoor Donald Trump Jr just can’t catch a break. Cenk Uygur, host of The Young Turks, breaks it down. Tell us what you think in the comment section below.
"Conservative media was abuzz over the New York Times’ report that Donald Trump Jr. had been told about Russian efforts to aid Trump in winning the election and Trump Jr.’s subsequent tweet of an email confirming the Times’ story. “There Is Now Evidence that Senior Trump Officials Attempted to Collude With Russia,” a National Review headline conceded. “The Russian investigation isn’t a witch hunt anymore, if it ever was,” National Review’s David French wrote. “It’s a national necessity.”
From the available evidence, it looks like Donald Jr., Paul Manafort, and Jared Kushner (the latter two were forwarded the e-mail chain and attended the meeting) attempted to cooperate in what they were told was an official Russian government effort to “support” Donald Trump. The meeting became meaningless to them only after it was clear that the Russian lawyer couldn’t deliver the goods. In other words, this isn’t the smoking gun that proves actual “collusion” with Russia, but rather evidence that Trump Jr., Manafort, and Kushner tried to collude with Russia.”*
