Trump administration is admitting the Session/Russian envoy discussion was about the election

He didn’t meet with the Russians.
Oh, but he did.
He didn’t discuss the election, oh but he did but just in a superficial way.

I don't think it was about the campaign. It was about other matters that involved Donald Trump. Do not believe what they tell you.

Sanctions?

Relations between our two countries?

Did the President authorize him to act on the behalf of the U.S.? (I mean President OBAMA - the guy who was President in 2016).

Or were they just exchanging cookie recipes?
