And, here we go. The Post names Rob Goldstone — a music publicist — as the "acquaintance." https://www.washingtonpost.com/politics/presidents-son-met-with-russian-lawyer-during-presidential-campaign-after-being-promised-information-helpful-to-fathers-effort/2017/07/09/90c0e3e8-64e9-11e7-8eb5-cbccc2e7bfbf_story.html?utm_term=.88ef2e557331&wpisrc=al_alert-national&wpmk=1
