Shocker: Donald Trump Jr. Will Be Talking Exclusively to Sean Hannity Tonight

[DonViejo]

by Josh Feldman | 12:07 pm, July 11th, 2017

Donald Trump Jr. is giving his first big interview since the news broke about his meeting with a Russian lawyer to Sean Hannity.

Hannity, of course, has been defending President Trump and his administration as the Russia investigations continue. He’s been one of the top––if not the top––Trump defenders on cable news.

Just last night, Hannity opened his show railing against the media’s “Russia psychosis” and, after reading Trump Jr.’s statement on his meeting, said, “The meeting was meaningless, did nothing to produce anything. Where’s the collusion?”

This morning Trump Jr. released the email chain in which he is told “this is obviously very high level and sensitive information but is part of Russia and its government’s support for Mr. Trump.” He reacted by saying, “Seems we have some time and if it’s what you say I love it especially later in the summer.”

1. Preaching to the loons and who watches Hannity these days apart from the loons.

[spanone]

2. the trumps always run to fox for shelter.....and hannity will shamelessly prop them up

[Tommy_Carcetti]

3. There's a Mensa meeting right there. nt

4. Do not bet on it

[LanternWaste]

10. Or on DeVos getting her ambassadorship

Or on DeVos getting her ambassadorship "she should have gotten in the first place..."

[Freethinker65]

16. referring to a previous post of mine about Betsy?

I have detested Ms. DeVos since growing up in Michigan. I am quite familiar with her trying to destroy public education in the state, her husband trying unsuccessfully to buy the governorship, and the Amway MLM pyramid scheme. I stated multiple times she was unqualified for the Sec of Ed. position... also saw how having an clueless idiot in charge to dismantle and/or dumb down education, while enriching her for-profit education products/business holdings, was most likely part of the GOP's game plan. I believe I said I wished she had been given the position of ambassador to somewhere which is what wealthy loyal unqualified political donors/bankrollers usually get for their $$$$$. I still stand by that. Her damage to the country would have been minimal and she could have been left to wine and dine dignitaries in a foriegn country, while diplomatic professional staff attended to serious matters. Wealthy donors often get ambassadorships.

My post here regarding the appearance of Jr. on Hannity was that I bet he pulls out of the interview. That, or he has been assured a pardon from his Dad. I find it hard to believe his attorney would allow Jr. to be interviewed without his presence, even with suck-up Hannity lobbing softballs. The NY Times forced Jr. to release the one email before they posted the story to get ahead of it, but that was still a stupid thing to do.

I am not clairvoyant, just stated my opinion. I do not have cable, so will wait until someone on the internet posts whether the "interview" does or does not happen.

5. This seems very staged and orchestrated...

Why would his lawyer not tell him to STFU?

[spanone]

11. he, like dad, probably knows more than his lawyer...

why would his lawyer allow him to release his emails?

i haven't heard that his lawyer resigned so....who knows?

[gratuitous]

12. That's a real good question

Even in the soft, friendly hands of Sean Hannity, Junior's propensity for saying, tweeting, e-mailing the wrong thing will almost certainly torpedo any gain Junior is hoping to get from a fawning interview. His lawyer should have him held incommunicado at an undisclosed location in a straitjacket.

[Sanity Claws]

6. He's not very bright

He has already seen that opening his mouth has caused a lot of pushback that he did not expect. Why would he keep on yapping?

He hired an attorney. No way is his attorney approving this. Jr. is heedless and reckless.

But good for us!!

[louis-t]

7. How will Hannity ask any questions with his head

in junior's lap? His mouth will most likely be full.

[Achilleaze]

8. KGOP symps are flocking together

Surprise HEADLINE to come out of this shit show:

REPUBLICAN DRAFT-DODGER-IN-CHIEF SAYS:

"I did not have full-on, evil treason against America with my scumbag republican-russian crony comrades. Believe me. Please please please believe me. Heh heh heh."

[workinclasszero]

9. Get ready for some hard hitting questions from Putin cock holster Sean Hannity

[ReformedGOPer]

13. If he goes without a lawyer, his arrogance will be the nail in his coffin.

Like his father, he just can't shut up. And if he does go with a lawyer, think of the optics! I still can't bring my self to watch tonight, but I'll be on DU following it.

[beachbum bob]

14. The more trumps talk, bigger the hole they dig with special prosecutor

Are they actually that stupid?.... yep

[SDJay]

15. Too Bad There Is No Accomplice Liability

for treason. This fucking guy is literally propping up traitors to our country.

[GulfCoast66]

17. They have one strategy open to them

Normalization of treason. They know Mueller has everything and all the sordid details will become public about long term collusion with Russia including the President.

Their only hope is to keep enough congressional republicans on their team by convincing the radical deplorables that what they did was not a problem but outsmarting the Democrats. Due to gerrymandering they may well get away with it.

[spiderpig]

18. Ooooohhhh! Let me set my DVR.

For MSNBC.

[Vinca]

19. Junior must have the dumbest lawyer on the planet.

[monmouth4]

20. Hannity just itching to beat Rachel in ratings. He's hoping this will do it..n/t
