The story is complete BS. Here's something to pond
Post# of 65628
1- this particular incident occurred OVER a year and a half ago.
IF Jr had cellphone records (that he just recently produced) why did he not present these alleged PHONE records many several months ago to totally halt the investigation ?????
2- none of the media reporting these records that magically appeared HAVE ACTUALLY seen these phone records. Only after it has been mentioned that perjury charges can be made against Jr for lying to Congress did these records appear.
They were told that "inside sources" in the WH confirmed the alleged phone records. The sources are who ??? ,...the Trump administration ? Thats like leaving the fox in charge of the hen house.
ALL Jr had to do was produce these records several months ago,...why didn't he ?
Is this another of Jr cut and paste talents like he did with his fathers approval rating changing it ?
3- The alleged records were only given over to Republicans and not the Democrats.
IF there were a fair discovery action these records would have been in the hands of the Democrats for inspection.
additionally,....
Things got worse when the New York Times reported that the two supposed phone calls in question were to NASCAR boss Brian France and real estate developer Howard Lorber. We’re really supposed to believe that, on his way into a treason meeting with the Russians, Donald Trump Jr decided he needed to run it all past the guy from NASCAR? Now it’s gotten worse.
Howard Lorber isn’t just some real estate developer. Craig Unger of Vanity Fair has revealed that when Donald Trump first traveled to Russia more than twenty years ago to try to build Trump Tower Moscow, his old pal Lorber went with him. So if Donald Trump Jr was indeed chatting with Lorber on his way into his meeting with the Russians, it would mean Junior expected the meeting to be about Trump Tower Moscow before he even walked into the room – which would further incriminate him.
So if the Senate Intel Committee has indeed obtained phone records proving that Donald Trump Jr spoke with Howard Lorber on his way into this meeting, it’s really bad news for Junior. And if the records don’t really exist or are forged, then the Trump Organization just handed Junior the worst phony alibi of all time. In any case, Lorber and France are about to get subpoenaed if they haven’t been already. And there is still no reason to believe Trump Jr didn’t speak with his dad on the way into the meeting.
THE ENTIRE SITUATION IS COMPLETE BS ON JR'S PART.
THIS IS JUST ANOTHER TRUMP SCAM.
