Why did Donald Trump Jr. lie?: Distinctly Catholic: When Trump Jr. was given the chance to meet with a Russian bigwig, what in his background would have prepared him to assess the values at stake properly?
MGB:_While we can prove intent with the e-mails, both Trump and the Russian lawyer have their stories straight, and the whole scandal will yield nothing for the Russians from this administration, which serves them right. As for Trump, Jr., he was not corrupt as much as naive about the law and principles involved. He was a effing rookie, like his entire family. Manafort should have looked over the e-mails and cancelled the meeting, but in capitalism where he operates, you don't tell the boss's sons know. I suspect his being fired is probably the result of assuming that and letting them get into trouble. As for Jr. lying to the press, that is not false witness, that is also the way the game is played in politics. The media does not get a free look under the hood. There maybe evidence of collusion on the wiretapping but this won't be it. Flynn talking is it. He is a general. He will sing like a bird.
