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."

    We did not get the GOP version of Hillary.

    That would be McCain, Romney, or Jeb. All of them were globalists like Hillary and Obama. Well, I guess we did elect Bush Jr., but we weren't too fond of him, and that was many years ago.

    Opposition to Trump is nearly the same as opposition to America itself. He is doing wonderful things for his country. He has, at least temporarily, saved the USA from decay and destruction.

    True

    So false it reeks. trump's put a veener of gold lame over the most rotten, diseased administration in living memory. Just read today's investigative report about how he's put three multi-millionares buddies who pay him hundreds of thousands to hang at tsar-a-lago and have never served in charge of the VA.
