The Crown prosecutor of Russia met with his father Aras this morning and in their meeting offered to provide the Trump campaign with some official documents and information that would incriminate Hillary and her dealings with Russia and would be very useful to your father. This is obviously very high level and sensitive information but is part of Russia and its government's support for Mr. Trump - helped along by Aras and Emin. What do you think is the best way to handle this information and would you be able to speak to Emin about it directly? I can also send this info to your father via Rhona, but it is ultra sensitive so wanted to send to you first. Best Rob Goldstone

Seems we have some time and if it's what you say I love it especially later in the summer. Could we do a call first thing next week when I am back? Best, Don Sent from my iPhone

I don't dispute that Trump Jr is was up to no good.
I just dispute that someone will be convicted of something because of it.
You really think people who first serve their self-interests are suddenly going to stand up and do the right thing? I don't.
Here's what I think is going to happen..Folks are going to do a gut check "Well, if we push for prosecution of a member of the Trump family, what's that going to mean for my political career? Will I still have a job? Will I still be in a position to advocate for my personal needs and wants."
And after the gut check, I think people might decide..Whoa, if I don't side with Trump, that's the end of me. And no one will stand up.
I also don't think after decades of the powerful being in power and being mostly invincible, something will happen to reverse that trend.
I've lost my faith in my elected officials and/or people in power to do the right thing. I don't expect them to start now.
I've lost faith in most people, actually, to do the right thing and make decisions that just didn't benefit them.
If we didn't live a "I've got mine, I don't give a shit about you." world, I'd feel differently.
But the truth is, the prevailing attitude is going to win.

Sudden medical event would be the worst. If one was to happen, September of 2020 would be good timing. **I'm going to burn in hell for that. I really don't wish death on anyone.**

Nope, and there's a pretty good explanation why in this article:

I have very little faith that Trump will get impeached. But I do think he is going to have a hard time winning a second term, if he decides to run again.

Turns out there was some fire in that Russian smoke after all. And it most like includes the President not just progeny Jr. and son in law.
