Rob Goldstone emails Donald Trump Jr. again, this time to ask for a meeting between the campaign and a Russian government attorney. This is the continuation of their earlier discussion of the Russians having dirt on Hillary Clinton.
Emin [Agalarov] asked that I schedule a meeting with you and The Russian government attorney who is flying over from Moscow for this Thursday.
I believe you are aware of the meeting – and so wondered if 3pm or later on Thursday works for you?
4:20 p.m., from Rob Goldstone
At some point, attorney Michael Cohen informs Donald Trump of the meeting, and he approves it.
Later that evening, Donald Trump wins the primaries in five states and guarantees himself the Republican nomination. During his victory speech, he promises dirt on Hillary Clinton.
I am going to give a major speech on probably Monday of next week and we’re going to be discussing all of the things that have taken place with the Clintons. I think you’re going to find it very informative and very, very interesting.
