Trump, July 2017: Tweet more

No the defense is Jr tweeted screenshots of the emails. You can't be tried for a crime if you tweet an admission.

fake tweets!

the email may as well have said "please reply if you want to admit to collusion"

i guess this is obvious, but was this a ploy to get kompromat on trump jr and whoever else he pulled into it? possibly a double whammy if they ended up provided real damaging material on clinton to the trump campaign, but regardless, obtaining evidence of collusion at the same time?

this strategy seems very interesting....

obviously there will need to be something more explicit to tie this directly the prez, though I can't imagine there's even a 1% chance that he didn't know about this meeting and the purported subject.

haha “Paul Manafort (campaign boss)”

the emails don jr tweeted are scans of print-outs. why were those emails being printed out? 🤔

what on earth is going on with this Universe

omg at this

gold star for lil' half-scoop and whoever is giving him legal advice for his tweets. daddy makes sure he has pretty good people - the second-best people, they're really nearly terrific.

the fact that Jared still has a job in this administration is completely fucking insane.

noted by somebody else, either Don Jr is getting terrible legal advice or he is ignoring good legal advice.

Half-Scoop refers to his brains, obviously

could be ignoring chaotic neutral legal advice

Something seems odd here, beyond the obvious odd things

i say tweet on, little doodle

"chaotic neutral legal advice" is beautiful tho

Does the slow rollout of the Donald Trump Jr. story remind anyone else of the penis pump gag in the first Austin Powers movie?

Unfortunately, the infection has spread throughout the party.

Reagan never would have made a shady deal with a hostile foreign power except that one time when he needed a slush fund for Nicaragua. https://t.co/zOJ3f8ebnz

and the Emin mentioned repeatedly in the emails is...Emin the famous Russian popstar? with the video with a Donald Trump cameo in 2013?

WTF AT WORLD

how are they so bad at this

hubris + stupidity not the optimal equation

Being bad at shit is what makes them so relatable to the base.

i still want to know why donnie (or his lawyer) was printing out these emails. in anticipation of a subpoena?

This definitely seems odd when judged by the usual standards one might apply to average human beings but I think this might be another one of those cases where someone with the last name of Trump is doing something (or a series of somethings) profoundly stupid simply because that person actually is that profoundly stupid. It's like trying to interpret the resultant string of characters on the screen after your pet iguana walks across your keyboard.

Emin is Azeri and not particularly famous In Russia but just happens to be married to the daughter of the President of Azerbaijan - where Trump is accused of being in on dubious property deals.

even Foxnews.com is running w this

Did someone tell him "if you have nothing to hide, you have nothing to fear" and he got confused?

"smoke possibly result of fire"

xp

xpost
i guess not that famous but he also has this well produced video with half the miss universe pageant plus donald trump in it

cue someone telling me how it's not well produced

This new character in the saga is a gift that keeps giving.

remember when people here thought Trump was probably innocent of collusion because he's so dumb he would have admitted to it by now

welp

wait I missed something who is that

xp

anyone remember that whole Morning Joe blackmail thing from eons ago??

bartolo colon has fallen on hard times

rly don't wanna think about that guy's colon

Every single member of the trump family is AJ Soprano

to their credit, they keep finding new ways to be bad at stuff

I am still boggling that dude posted screenshots of that entire email chain on Twitter

i feel like someone gave him very specific legal advice over and over again and this is kind of what happened

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=R15LkyO8gq8

i was psyched enough for the prospect of trump dropping kushner in it so he could stay out of jail but sending lil' donnie to the hoosegow too would be hilarious

im sorry but this is incredibly fucking funny pic.twitter.com/IdKOX4yPdI

it's the classic crisis-management tactic of 'getting out in front of the story' but filtered through the pomade-addled mind of donald j trump jr

with hilarious results

"I must get out in front of this story... by confirming its substance and providing corroborating evidence!"
"Donnie, that's not what 'get out in front' means-"
"I'M TWEETING! I'M GONNA BE A LEGEND!"

look who's tweeting
