Political Quotes

On June 3, 2016, at 10:53 a.m., less than 20 minutes after that email, Donald Trump, Jr., wrote back: ``Thanks, Rob, I appreciate that. I am on the road at the moment but perhaps I just speak to Emin first. Seems we have some time, and if it's what you say, I love it especially later in the summer. Could we do a call first thing next week when I am back? ``Best, Don.'' Mr. Speaker, ``I love it.'' His response was: ``I love it.'' I worked in politics for a long time. I have never been approached with information from a foreign government. But if I were, my response would not be: ``I love it.'' My response would be: ``This is completely inappropriate.'' My response would be: ``Don't ever contact me again.'' My response would be: ``I am calling the FBI.'' In this email, Donald Trump, Jr., showed his true colors. This email proves that he lacks basic integrity. The willingness of Jared Kushner to attend that meeting proves that he, too, is no patriot.
