NOTHING can change this fact—MINUTES after Trump "discovered" a Kremlin agent on his NatSec team he ordered a pro-Putin GOP platform change.
2/ When Trump found a Kremlin agent on his NatSec team, he didn't FIRE him—he PROMOTED him to be a key emissary on Russian sanctions policy.
3/ Not only didn't Trump FIRE Papadopoulos ASAP, he gave him DIRECT access to ALL his top aides—every last one—for more than SEVEN MONTHS.
4/ Trump told America REPEATEDLY he knew of no contact between his aides and Russia. But Papadopoulos TOLD TRUMP he'd had Russian contacts.
5/ So only a lack of knowledge about the facts of the Trump-Russia probe could lead ANYONE to think Trump didn't suffer a MAJOR blow today.
