On Thursday Connecticut Senator Chris Murphy took the stage on Morning Joe to weigh in on the Donald Trump Jr. imbroglio.

Mika got things going by asking whether Kushner should still have high level security clearance. The bigger question is Why Jared Kushner still has a job, quipped Murphy. Either Jared Kushner didnt tell his superiors, didnt tell his boss, the President of the United States, that he had this meeting and if thats the case hes subject to the same problem hat got Michael Flynn fired
The other option though is that he did tell people that he had this meeting that he changed his disclosure forms and the White House, the president on down to his spokesmen continued to lie.
New York Times reporter and show regular Jeremy Peters then moved on to Trump Jr., asking whether Murphy believes his assertion that President Trump was never made aware of the meetings. Murphy again pulled no punches.
It strains credibility to believe that Donald Trump didnt know about this meeting given the fact that some of his closest advisers and family members were inside that meeting, he said. There is no reason that we should believe the story that Donald Trump Jr. is telling today. He lied openly and repeatedly about his contacts with the Russian government. I am not sure why today we are willing to believe the story he is currently telling.

(3,789 posts)Ladies and gentlemen, exhibit 2,760 over the first 6 months of this disgusting administration: you can never trust a pathological liar. The reflexive and blatant lying by members of this corrupt and sickening administration has made it impossible to believe anything that comes out of their mouths. No credibility. None. Ever. Period.

You guys control the standards, dick! If one shoe had dropped in a Hillary Clinton administration, the GOP would be impeaching, indicting, imprisoning, and popping the champagne by now. Trump has had a whole fucking warehouse full of shoes drop and nothing has happened! I mean it's time we started holding the republicans to those same ridiculous standards. This is bullshit!
