Did Trumps lawyer accidentally make a huge confession about the meeting with the Russian lawyer?

[turbinetree]

Jay Sekulow suggested the Secret Service vetted the meeting, but Donald Trump Jr. was not being protected at that time.


If this is what happened I will be calling my senator and demanding some fucking answers

1. The other possibility, applying Occam's Razor, is that Sekulow

is an idiot who's desperately pulling excuses out of his ass. Even if Little Donnie had been eligible for SS protection at the time, it wouldn't have been the responsibility of the SS to vet his visitors as to whether they were Russian spies - they would have been there only to protect him from the risk of physical harm.

Someone came up with a corollary to Occam's Razor (the simplest explanation is probably the correct one), which is Trump's Razor: The stupidest explanation is probably the correct one. That might apply here.

2. An idiot that is enabling a TREASON.............instead of upholding the rule of law

3. Well, Sekulow's big claim to fame now is that he graduated (?) from being Pat ROBert$on's catamite

to Trump's pimp. I knew he was a snake the first time I saw him years ago.

4. That someone is Josh Marshall

Josh is the Editor and Publisher of the website Talking Points Memo. During 2016 campaigns, he developed the concept of Trump's Razor as you stated it.

Not surprisingly, TPM's web address is:

http://talkingpointsmemo.com

They deserve support and clicks.

Josh and his team of reporters and writers dig deeply into their stories and the coverage is excellent. Next to Democratic Underground, TPM is one of my primary news sources. (My only quibble with them is that their copy editing is sloppy.)

5. Sekulow often sounds like he's extemporizing. Making stuff up as he goes along.

Lying.

10. A veteran of the softball question league

He is not accustomed to getting real questions that require an answer other than a pre-memorized talking point. That is why he has a deer-in-the-headlights look, he has to think for the first time on TV. And thinking is very "foreign" to him, if you'll pardon the pun.

6. That could mean...

That the secret people vetted the meeting for the big cheeto's appearance, couldn't it?

He had protection then.

Was Cheeto there?

7. Good Point he was in the building at the time.....................

8. I don't believe it's the Secret Service's job...

to vet candidate Trump's son's meetings, is it?

How many layers of lies can these people pile on top of each other? Maybe that's their "secret plan". Tell SO MANY lies it's virtually impossible to separate them to get to the truth?

I'm SO SICK of these people! They're so disgusting, yet their supporters still believe everything they say. How can these people be so stupid?

9. You just said it. They are STUPID. And you can't fix stupid.

[turbinetree]

12. Did not the sexual predator bring his strong man into the white house?

And did one Keith Schiller, the man Trump sent to fire Comey?

He does not work with the secret service, he does work under the guise of the taxpayers, why is this ass**** on the payroll, and did he do the vetting...................

I mean really what is Keith Schiller position with this criminal enterprise, besides being the strong man?

Was he anywhere near that meeting?

11. Vetting is just one of their buzzwords to rally the Fox News crowd

It is an attempt to show how careful, courteous, and thorough they are.

Extreme vetting, you know?
