Of which meeting with people from Russia is neither... even if you wish it were.
Yes, yes they are, and your lack of legal knowledge is duly noted.
Here is the relevant portion of the email, that Jr posted:

and I quote:
offered to provide the Trump campaign with some official documentation and information that would incriminate Hillary and her dealings with Russia and would be very useful to your father
and
But this is part of Russia and it's government support for Mr Trump
So that's what they've admitted, right up front. That, in and of itself, could well be considered a felony:

Read it my friend, Im not making this shit up:
Contributions and donations by foreign nationals in connection with elections. A foreign national shall not, directly or indirectly, make a contribution or a donation of money or other thing of value, or expressly or impliedly promise to make a contribution or a donation, in connection with any Federal, State, or local election.

That a ''thing of value'' includes intangibles is well documented in case law. And all of this from people with a longstanding relationship with Trump.
And here is essentially the breakdown:
A foreign agent(Natalia V) offered to provide opposition research(a thing of value) originating from the Russian Gov't(all according to the email) to the Trump Campaign(Donnie Jr/Kush/Manafort) and I quote, they would "Love it!". This is a felony.
Contributions(this opposition research) and donations by foreign nationals(Natalia V) in connection with elections(Trump Campaign). A foreign national(Natalia V) shall not, directly or indirectly, make a contribution(Opposition research originating from the Russian Govt) or a donation of money or other thing of value(see opposition reseacrh), or expressly or impliedly promise to make a contribution or a donation, in connection with any Federal, State, or local election(Trump Presidential Campaign).
So, in fact, it's pretty cut and dry, they could indict Manafort on and Kushner on this alone(not sure about Trump Jrs actual relationship to the campaign).
Given you've been wrong about EVERYTHING since before the election and you've been saying this for over 7 months now... my question is: don't you ever get tired of being wrong and being a loser?
The only thing I was wrong about was about how stupid and gullible the current republican party is.
