Jared Kushner admits he told Donald Trump about Donald Trump Jr.s Russia meeting

The NYTimes article that is mentioned in this article is below. The picture that is being developed is becoming a bit less murky (My analogy).

First came word from the New York Times that Donald Trump’s own attorneys think Jared Kushner is giving Trump bad advice on how to handle the Russia scandal, in the hope of protecting himself at Trump’s expense.

Now comes word that, long before the news of Donald Trump Jr.’s meeting with Russia hit the newswires, Kushner told Donald Trump about the meeting. This directly undermines Trump’s own current attempt at a defense.

When the Trump Jr. story broke in the media, Donald Trump tried to claim that he had just learned about the meeting in the few days before it hit the wires. This was an attempt on his part at insulating himself from the serious crimes his son committed.

But now the NY Times is reporting that Jared Kushner is admitting he told Donald Trump about the meeting back when he was revising the security clearance forms he had lied on (link). No specific timeframe is given for when he told him, but it would have been sometime around the end of May or the start of June.

And so Jared Kushner has just confirmed that Donald Trump is lying when he claims he didn’t learn about the meeting until a few days ago. It’s becoming more clear by the minute that Kushner is only interested in protecting himself.

He was the one who informed the Feds about Trump Jr.’s Russia meeting when he amended his clearance forms, meaning that he’s the one who put all of the current developments in motion – and he did that all to try to save himself from going to prison for lying on those forms..................................

With Glare on Trump Children, Political Gets Personal for President

...................While Donald Trump Jr. has been on the firing line, the meeting with Ms. Veselnitskaya could arguably be a bigger distraction for Mr. Kushner. As a senior adviser to the president, he is involved in several of the administration’s most sensitive foreign-policy issues, from China to the Middle East peace process. His involvement in the meeting led reporters to ask the White House whether he still held his security clearance.

Also under scrutiny is how forthcoming Mr. Kushner was with his father-in-law about the nature of the June meeting. He met with Mr. Trump to discuss the issue, according to advisers to the White House, around the time he updated his federal disclosure form to include Ms. Veselnitskaya’s name on a list of foreign contacts that Mr. Kushner was required to submit to the F.B.I. to obtain a security clearance.

Mr. Kushner supplemented the list of foreign contacts three times, adding more than 100 names, people close to him said.

Mr. Kushner played down the significance of the meeting and omitted significant details, according to two people who were briefed on the exchange. They said Mr. Kushner informed the president that he had met with a Russian foreign national, and that while he had to report the name, it would not cause a problem for the administration.

Another official said Mr. Kushner’s assurance to the president was based on the fact that nothing came of the June meeting.

In an interview with Reuters, Mr. Trump said he had not been told last summer that his son was meeting with a Russian lawyer. “No, that I didn’t know until a couple of days ago when I heard about this,” he said..........................
