A year ago on June 6, 2016, after clinching the nomination of the Republican Party,
Donald Trump boasted, “I am going to give a major speech ... 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!” -- his voice modulated in that reality show hype style of his.
"Monday" never came.
According to Abby Philip, Trump never gave that speech.
Here's a coincidence:
Just hours earlier, Junior Trump had hit send on an email confirming a meeting with Natasha from Russia who supposedly had dirt on Hillary -- free dirt.
International dirt.
Incidentally,
Daddy Trump Senior now denies that he
ever even as in never knew about the meeting until "a couple of days ago."
Another coincidence: When -- or because? -- the actual meeting between Junior, Jared, Manafort, and Natasha from Russia produced no new dirt on Hillary, the promised Trump speech evaporated. Makes me actually believe what
Junior's been claiming --- that they didn't get any actionable intelligence out of Natasha.
I'm also believing the whole Russian espionage tradecraft of "the dangle," to see if a potential asset will bite at bait. The Trumps bit.
Upshot: The dangle worked. Later, through the agency of Michael Flynn or some other intermediary,
or several, a deal got made between the Trump campaign and representatives of Putin to strategically release stolen emails guaranteed to hurt Mr. Trump's opponent. And that wasn't a coincidence.
