Hate to interrupt the discussion about the Kurds, but BrooksBear, you never answered me about the three confirmed times Trump met those guys.
BrooksBear? Should I consider your silence as an admission you were wrong or that you flat out lied?
30 seconds on google tells me there are at least 2 known photos of the defendants with Trump Sr, and another photo of a private dinner between the defendants and Trump Jr. Other photos show them with Florida Governor Ron DeSantis. Plus they were working with Trump's personal lawyer Rudy Giuliani, hard to believe Trump wasn't at least aware of their existence.
And 30 seconds of thinking rationally (at the most) should tell you that taking photos with someone, especially when you are a celebrity, doesn't necessarily mean you know them, and that Trump won't necessarily know everyone who his son and his lawyer associate with. The claim was made that Trump "lied" about not knowing those two guys, because he "met" with them a "confirmed" three times. I have not seen or read anything about that. Maybe you can help him out on that one. Hey, maybe Trump does know them, maybe he doesn't. But the facts you present don't necessarily prove it was a lie that Trump didn't know them.
I remember a VP debate when Cheney denied having ever met his opponent. Before the debate was over there was a pic of the two of them seated side by side at a dinner, talking. But an ego like Trump's only remembers the big ballers.
