So now the story is that Rob Goldstone was totally just kidding when he told Trump Jr that the Russian government was supporting the Trump campaign.
Here’s what they want us to believe happened:
Aras tells Emin to set up a meeting with the Trump team but doesn’t say why or who will be attending the meeting.
Emin relays the vague request to Goldstone who just makes up that it’s a Russian government overture.
Aras tells Emin to set up a meeting with the Trump team but doesn’t say why or who will be attending the meeting.

And it was just a coincidence that the Russian government was literally hacking Trump’s opponents around the same time.
It’s also a coincidence that Aras met Russia’s Prosecutor General days before telling Emin to set up the meeting. Goldstone mentioned the “crown prosecutor” but that was totally just a made up thing that he included in the email to make it sound more important.
I don’t know about you guys but when my boss says “hey set up a meeting for these unknown people about this unknown topic with the campaign of the Republican candidate for president” I tend to embellish a bit and say that it’s the Russian government’s request.
