Remember that Trump, in this same May 10 meeting with Lavrov and Kisylak, reportedly passed along classified information to the Russians that was considered so top-secret that his administration asked news organizations -- including CNN -- not to report it even after Trump revealed it to the Russians.
It's hard to imagine how Trump, who is currently aboard Air Force One jetting his way to Saudi Arabia to kick off a nine-day foreign trip, could have handled this meeting worse.
He was, and is, desperately trying to convince the American public that reports of his campaign's ties to Russia -- and the possibility of collusion between the two -- are totally ridiculous, "fake news" in Trump's parlance. If you were trying to make that case, you would do, literally, the opposite of what Trump reportedly did in that May 10 meeting
