Reuters reports that on Friday, U.S. President Donald Trump said he did not know about the 2016 meeting at Trump Tower between Russians and his campaign staff including his son Don Jr. During the meeting, the Russians offered to provide damaging information about Democratic rival Hillary Clinton.
Trump said in a Twitter post, “I did NOT know of the meeting with my son, Don jr.” This after a CNN report that his longtime lawyer Michael Cohen said Trump knew of the meeting in advance.
