With emails released by the younger Trump showing a clear desire to collude with the Russian government to undermine Hillary Clinton, President Trump has struggled to coordinate an official White House response.

After first distancing himself from the meeting with a Russian lawyer, the most President Trump would say was that his son was a “high quality person” and very “transparent.”

On Wednesday Morning, Trump Sr. returned to Twitter, however, to his assert his son’s innocence and praise his Tuesday night performance on Hannity. The president also added that the imbroglio into Trump Jr.’s emails were “The greatest political witch hunt in political history”

12. Someone said this isn't a faucet going drip, drip, drip....

this is a water cannon at full strength. And I wish to god that we could think up different ways to say the same thing.

If I hear, drip, drip, drip one more time I am going to scream. Even the Frank Luntz lackeys have to get on their game and fax some different bullet points out to these collaborators. "Nothing-burger" or what ever the word/phrase of the day REALLY needs a little bit more variation. Please.

But when it's anyone else, they're "leakers."
