5News reports:

President Donald Trump appears to have changed his story about a 2016 meeting at Trump Tower that is pivotal to the special counsel's investigation, tweeting that his son met with a Kremlin-connected lawyer to collect information about his political opponent.

[...] That is a far different explanation than Trump gave 13 months ago, when a statement dictated by the president but released under the name of Donald Trump Jr., read: "We primarily discussed a program about the adoption of Russian children that was active and popular with American families years ago."

  Guys like you are just as responsible for trump as that lickspittle.
  The fact that you think obama 2.0, aka hillary was the equivalent of trump and refused to vote for her had the same mathematical effect as the people voting for trump.
  hillary was flawed, but nothing even remotely like trump's flaws, not even close.
  and fools like you making that false equivalence are just unwitting tools of trump and his backers.

  You don't have to apologize for fucking up, you don't even have to retract that bullshit you regurgitated about clinton because nothing you can do will undo your roll in electing trump.
  But JFC now that you see where it got us, have some self-awareness, do some introspection and stop repeating that same idiocy going forward
