Nope. Got you loud and clear. You have a case of Trump Derangement Syndrome and since you already have a conclusion that you like, you search fake news sources to support your forgone conclusion.der Teufel wrote:I dunno, it seems you're working pretty hard to deliberately misunderstand everything I've written.
You are welcome. You are a most gracious loser.der Teufel wrote:Okay, I'm good with that. You've pretty much made my case.
Thanks!
OMG, you are so right. How could I possibly have discounted the NOT UNDER OATH email dribble, er...statements of an Azerbaijani "business man" and a "publicist"?

(sigh) Did you even bother to look at the BBC article? All it contains are the emails sent received by Donald Trump Jr. There's little or no commentary. As Joe Friday used to say "Just the facts, Ma'am".
The emails contain such gems as:
On 3 June 2016, at 10:36, Rob Goldstone (publicist) wrote:
Good morning
Emin (Agalarov, Azerbaijani businessman and singer-songwriter) just called and asked me to contact you with something very interesting.
The Crown prosecutor of Russia met with his father Aras (Agalarov, Azerbaijani-Russian businessman and public figure) this morning and in their meeting offered to provide the Trump campaign with some official documents and information that would incriminate Hillary and her dealings with Russia and be very useful to your father.
This is obviously very high level and sensitive information but is part of Russia and its government's support for Mr Trump - helped along by Aras and Emin.
Did you catch the part where he tells Don T Jr. that "This is … part of Russia and its government's support for Mr. Trump …" ?

Hope all is well
Emin asked that I schedule a meeting with you and The Russian government attorney who is flying over from Moscow for this Thursday.
I believe you are aware of the meeting - and so wondered if 3pm or later on Thursday works for you?
I assume it would be at your office.
Best

How about 3 at our offices? Thanks rob appreciate you helping set it up.

Did you note where Goldstone wrote "Russian government attorney"?
It's gonna be pretty tough for Don T Jr. to claim he didn't know the Russian government was involved.
And your sources are (besides Breitbart) ?????

I think the issue here is that foreign governments and entities (companies, individuals) are not supposed to interfere in US elections. Candidates cannot accept contributions from foreign entities, nor should they accept other assistance. It comes down to meddling in our election process. That's the issue. A foreign government (Russia) attempted to interfere in a US election, and Donald Trump Jr. apparently was willing to go along with that. Such actions are not legal.
