    I don't think that Natalia Veselnitskaya was a pawn.

    I think she, and Putin's men that sent her, knew exactly what they were doing.

    Remember that Veselnitskaya travels in the circle of Russian oligarchs and real estate types 'that surround Putin. Rember that Goldstone does too (albeit on the fringe). Remember the Russian oligarchs looking to launder money have been the chief source of financing for Trump ventures for a long time.

    Remember also that Veselnitskaya was the defending attorney in a money laundering case against a member of the Katsyv family brought by Phreet Bararra. Remember that Trump tried to personally contact Barerra just before he abruptly fired him (even though he had been assured by Bannon and Kushner that he would be retained). That case was quickly settled.

    They knew who Trump was, and all of his weaknesses. Putin is a man for whom corruption comes naturally. And he knows how to co opt arrogant fools like Trump.

    Vesalnitskaya's job was the deliver the message (and set the drag).

    Which is why you're not seeing any hearings. Although Grassley did subpoena Don Jr.

    I think the fact that they see nothing wrong with this meeting is a major red flag. If they believe such a meeting to be something that is a routine and acceptable practice, then it is not unlikely for them to have arranged several other meetings just like the one that Trump Jr made.

    When Putin's KGB attacked our democracy by creating a bogus dossier to destroy a Presidential candidate, I cared. When the DNC paid an intermediary to gather the unsubstantiated garbage from the KGB, I cared. When the former President and his FBI Director showed the product of DNC-KGB collusion to TRump to make the unsubstantiated rubbish reportable news in an attempt to destroy the Trump Administration before Inauguration Day, I cared. Did you?

    That's the $24K question. I wouldn't be surprised if the answer turns out to be yes. We'll see...

    Lol...Yeah. I see that you're still throwing hysterical **** out there, desperately hoping to distract.
    You're one of the best turd polishers I've seen, but you're fighting a losing battle trying to keep up with the trump crime family.

    This is HILARIOUS.

    OK guys. I'm starting to believe this "Obama did it" right-wing meme! What... now stay with me here... what if Obama WENT BACK IN TIME and MADE the Trump dolts eat lead paint chips everyday?

    NEFARIOUS!!!

    Obama and pals set him up, then used it as an excuse to get a fisa warrant so they could wiretap the Trump campaign.

    No, I think Trumpers do care. They just want the whole truth to come out. Not just the wishful thinking of the left.

    People who are set up are usually blinded by the greed of getting something that appears to good to be true. So is little clone Donny boy that stupid and gullible ? West us your answer?

    Trumpeizdas do not care that the Putinskis have their boy on a dog leash. They seem to groove on that.

    My comment is:

    It must be wonderful to be a right wing nationalist Trumpette these days. Seems in their own tiny bubble, absolutely everything "not good" is somebody elses fault and everything that is good is because of donald.

    Well, he was an easy mark. Seriously, I'm sure Trump Sr is saying to himself--I should have let Ivanka take over the company, not my idiot son.

    What Don Jr wanted to do was unethical but legal, IMHO. That said, he was too stupid to see that it was a setup. The Russian lawyer worked with a Dem oppo research firm.

    I don't believe they feel such a meeting is routine and acceptable, I believe they thought they wouldn't get caught.
    I'm sure there were other meetings.

    exactly, the Russians played the Trumps as tools... sad!

    I think the Trumps have tarnished their brand name more then all the people they sued for tarnishing their brand name put together
