Question

Did TheRUMP sell Don Jr down the river?

After the young fella said the meeting was about "adoption" to Mueller.

President Admits Focus of Trump Tower Meeting Was Getting Dirt on Clinton

WASHINGTON — President Trump said on Sunday that a Trump Tower meeting between top campaign aides and a Kremlin-connected lawyer was designed to “get information on an opponent” — the starkest acknowledgment yet that a statement he dictated about the encounter last year was misleading.

Mr. Trump made the comment in a tweet on Sunday morning that was intended to be a defense of the June 2016 meeting and his son Donald Trump Jr.’s role in hosting it. The president claimed that it was “totally legal” and of the sort “done all the time in politics.”

But the tweet also served as an admission that the Trump team had not been forthright when Donald Trump Jr. issued a statement in July 2017 saying that the meeting had been primarily about the adoption of Russian children. Donald Trump Jr. made the statement after The New York Times revealed the existence of the meeting.

In the interview, Mr. Sekulow said that it was not clear what laws the president’s son and the other campaign officials at the Trump Tower meeting might have violated when they met with the Kremlin-connected lawyer.

to man's foolishness to man. "Most Left-Leaning Rag", as voted by Breitbart, says WH "misled" in an earlier statement. Given all the twitting by WH, inquiring minds feel entitled to think misled could have been spelled l-i-e-d; misled.
I guess even the left can show restraint.
