Trump and Giualiani's Ukrainian Associates

[whatbogsends]

Pictures have emerged of Trump with Parnas and Fruman, in group shots (both of them with Giuliani), alone (Parnas with Trump at the White House), and even dining with Trump Jr. (both of them).

Of course, the bastion of honesty that is Donald Trump has denied knowing them (he also claims to have the world's best memory):

"I don't know those gentlemen. Now it's possible I have a picture with them because I have a picture with everybody, I have a picture with everybody here," Trump said, according to a pool report.

Problem is you down right know that if he had any real discussions with them outside of a few mere pleasantries you know it would have already have been leaked. Seeing it hasn't the President is probably genuine and sincere in what he said.

Just posing for multiple pictures with them in the White House, and with Giuliani. And they dined with Trump Jr., who has been estranged from Trump, so no connection there.

He's probably as genuine and sincere about not knowing them as he was when he said he didn't have an affair with Stormy Daniels and that he didn't know about the payoff.

Photo ops only count when Obama is pictured with someone.

It would be different if Trump had lunch with them at the airport just prior to their efforts to flee the country.

No, I know noting of the sort. What is it with people making up scenarios and then trying to pass off their made up scenario as evidence?

Defense mechanism commonly employed by most humans. Being aware if it and actively trying to stop the act of this mechanism is a noble virtue that should be valued. There are others who would find that bothersome. We should give such people no pause.

I'd say seeing what we've seen the last few years in regard to leaks of just about everything if they had something nefarious probability demands we would have seen it.

I would say cynicism combined with confirmation bias not a good place to make declarations from.
