The details of the Trump family’s Russia connections seem to be getting murkier by the day (“Trump backs ‘innocent’ son after email disclosure,” July 13). No amount of huffing and puffing by Donald Trump can slow down the investigation. It is now known that Trump Jr. received an email from one of Trump senior’s former business partners offering “dirt” on Hillary Clinton. Trump Jr. quickly arranged a meeting with a Russian lawyer who had strong connections with the Kremlin. The meeting was also attended by the President’s campaign chairman, Paul Manafort, and the President’s son-in-law, Jared Kushner. It is extremely disturbing that all these surrogates failed to exercise their civic duties. They should have immediately informed the FBI. The FBI should demand that Mr. Kushner and Mr. Manafort surrender their emails to shed further light on the purpose of these meetings.
