Keith Olbermann Digs up Old Trump Tweet That May Confirm He Knew Don Jr. Met with Russian Lawyer
Coincidence? It’s possible. But the timeline checks out.

The first tweet Trump sent after the meeting between Manafort, Don Jr. and Veselnitskaya happened to also be the first time Trump mentioned former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton’s “missing 33,000 emails.”

Hmm…Trump’s very 1ST tweet about HRC’s “missing 33,000 emails” appears to be from 6/9/16, after Manafort, Kushner, Don Jr met the Russian

Nothing to see here Move along
Always a good impetuous for Lawyering up
Running scared the whole lot of them
They know they’re dirty.
They just thought the rest of the country was as stupid as their voters, blind to the Grifting

When you’re in the amount of trouble Trump Jr is in, you don’t hire a criminal attorney…you hire a CRIMINAL attorney.

And what is Alan Futerfas’ connection to Putin and/or the Russian mob? All the other lawyers seem to be connected, so it is not unreasonable to suspect that this fellow is, too.

”…Russian election meddling…”

Since we know the GRU attacked government systems in 39 states…

Can we just call it what it was, “a Russian military attack on the United States”?

Because…you know…nobody ever referred to “Japanese naval meddling” at Pearl Harbor in 1941.

So how many people involved in the Trump campaign have criminal attorneys now? Anyone keeping score?

Donald Trump Jr. hired criminal defense attorney Alan Futerfas on Monday.

Alan Futerfas is an anagram of snafu fart ale. Drink up, Junior!

It’s also an anagram of elf fart sauna. Hey Junior, if you can’t take the heat…!

In '16, Futerfas represented the son in a drug case involving an entire family that ran a drug ring out of the family’s Queens based pizza shop. He counseled the son to turn on the dad in order to avoid jail time. Foreshadowing?

He’s from the Covfefe Futerfas’s of South Boston…

Wow, that must be some sort of record. In less than 24-hours from ‘nothing to see’ to hiring a criminal lawyer.

Even KAC can’t scrape the crap off of this story. Looks like ‘Little Donny’ is going to be the first to take the fall for the Trump Crime Family.

“If we had just stayed in NYC, no one would be the wiser”, he sobbed on the bus to Otisville.
