Also, unsurprisingly, Seph, yes it would still be fucking news if the lawyer were dutch or something. It would still be fucking news if the lawyer were AMERICAN. I can tell you don't believe me, though, it's not like we've ever in history had Americans going "Hey guy we can get you dirt on your political opponent" and the guy was like "HIT ME UP DUDE", with some conveniently memorable name like "Watergate" involved, after all.


I disagree

It's only really getting them in deep shit BECAUSE she is explicitly referred to as being a foreign agent attempting to influence an American election officially on behalf of her government, and Don Jr jumps at the chance.

If there was no foreign government mentioned, it's not a big deal.

Thankfully the emails don't mince words! Like, if this doesn't fit your criteria as intent to collude with Putin to influence an election, what WOULD?

Yeah it's bad. However, she was not part of the Kremlin, so it gets kind of weird.


If a woman goes to an undercover cop, thinking he's a hitman, and says "Here's 20 thousand dollars, kill my husband," it doesn't matter that he's not a hitman... It matters that she thought he was.

What very much matters here is what Donald Jr. THOUGHT he was doing.

This is what's so mindblowing about Jr's excuses.

The "I thought she had a bombshell but she just roped me in with a nothing burger!" excuse namely. Like what the fuck, he thinks the problem is that he didn't get to collude?

That's basically every single episode of To Catch a Predator, as Chris Hansen comes in before they get to do anything
