Trump Jr. Email Recap: Not Much to be Worried About

New Trump emails Read the Emails on Donald
Trump Jr.’s Russia Meeting
:

Good morning
Emin just called and asked me to contact you with something very interesting.
The Crown prosecutor of Russia met with his father Aras 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 would 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.
What do you think is the best way to handle this information and would you be able to speak to Emin about it directly?
I can also send this info to your father via Rhona, but it is ultra sensitive so wanted to send to you first.
Best
Rob Goldstone

I stand by my earlier predictions that Trump will not be impeached.

Some things to keep in mind:

-The only way Trump possibly gets impeached is if he personally signed off on hacking. This means Trump has to have, first, been made aware of hacking and then, second, approved it, and it has to have been recorded. A written or oral testimony caries much less weight. The burden of proof of the pro-impeachment side is very high and they are far from meeting it.

-Also, Hillary also has foreign ties regarding her campaign (Saudi Arabia and the Clinton Foundation), so if the left-wing pursues this too aggressively it will also expose their own corruption in the process too. Although Trump and Russia are close, so is CNN, Saudi Arabia, Hillary Clinton, and the Clinton Foundation.

-Trump Jr. communicating with Russian govt. doesn’t mean Trump himself was involved.

-Let’s assume Trump was aware that Russia would try to help him win. Such knowledge is not illegal.

-It’s possible the information was obtained without illegal entry. The burden of proof on the left is not that incriminating information was leaked but rather that is was obtained illegally. Nowhere in the chain of emails is there anything pertaining to hacking.

-According to Trump Jr. himself, no information was exchanged:

The woman, as she has said publicly, was not a government official. And, as we have said, she had no information to provide and wanted to talk about adoption policy and the Magnitsky Act. To put this in context, this occurred before the current Russian fever was in vogue. As Rob Goldstone said just today in the press, the entire meeting was “the most inane nonsense l ever heard. And I was actually agitated by it.”
