That would have given the cover of not physically being present, while allowing him to know exactly what was going on and control the conversation.

Can't wait till the National Enquirer breaks the story about the republican traitors to America and their Gang GitTogether with the russians.

This looks like it's going to be another Horrible, No God, Very Bad Week for Don the Con. They're all going to jail.

(24,259 posts)His son would definitely know that so I'm almost positive Dolt45 was there, if not physically, then on a phone/listening in.
Junior is just so very eager to please his father (the psychology of which I won't get into) to NOT let him know about this possible 'score' beforehand.

(36,926 posts)There is NO way he wasn't in that meeting, one way or another. We just need the evidence, which I'm sure is out there. The gang who can't shoot straight has it, and the weakest link will spill the beans. Not sure if the weakest link is Kushner or Junior. Maybe both.

(959 posts)on his own is delusional. Dump is a control freak, and there is no way he would let either of his male spawn speak for him. And as for the daughter, not much more. He was supposed to be in thrall to her, and we now see that she has very little influence on his actions, if she in fact even speaks up to him. The son in law seems to be the chosen one, which will make it all the sweeter when he turns Dump out to the authorities. I believe Dump himself was in the meeting; there's a reason that any and all meetings were in Trump Tower; Dump has total control of the tower, and it's comings and goings. That's what he demands, total control, that how he's done business for 40 years. If he wasn't right there in the room, he was on the other end of Manafort's phone.
