GOP rep on Trump dictating Russia meeting statement: Best to have maximum amount of transparency

Source: The Hill

Rep. Lee Zeldin (R-N.Y.) said Tuesday it's important to be transparent after a report that President Trump dictated a misleading statement about his son's meeting last year with a Russian lawyer.

"It's always best to have the maximum amount of transparency on any issue that is before you, as it obviously played out in this particular case with the few days in a row of the story coming out," Zeldin said on CNN's "New Day."

His comments come after The Washington Post reported that the president dictated a statement about Donald Trump Jr.'s meeting with a Russian lawyer.

Hey, Zeldin, do you believe in the tooth fairy, because your main man in your party lied-------------and the logic you bring forth is full of sh*t

Zeldin pointed out that the Post report said it is not known what Trump knew at the time about the Trump Jr. meeting.

"I would be really interested in knowing what the president knew at that time," Zeldin said.


Do you really think Zeldin, that when he sat and wrote that misleading statement he didn't know, then why didn't he come forward earlier zippy, he intentionally meant to lie

The President of the US knew his kids story looked bad and he directed him to lie to hide the truth.

I don't know what more proof you need.
