Donald Trump’s corrupt son, Donald Trump Jr., knows he’s in deep trouble thanks to his infamous Trump Tower meeting. It’s been a massive topic of discussion as of late and everyone wants to ask questions about it. But as expected, the Trumps just want to hide.
Earlier today, America saw that the apple doesn’t fall too far from the tree, because Trump’s son is just as much of a coward as he is. While Trump is hiding from the press in the White House, Trump Jr. is hanging up on them. In a live interview with radio show host Laura Ingraham, Trump Jr. pretty much fled the scene as soon as she asked about his Trump Tower meeting. He went absolutely silent and dropped the call!
Ingraham wanted to clarify the many conflicting statements about the Trump Tower meeting between the Trump campaign and the Russians, which was set up to get dirt on Democratic candidate Hillary Clinton. Trump Jr. had originally lied and said the meeting was about Russian orphans, but then his dad tweeted on Sunday that the meeting’s true purpose was to get damaging Clinton info. The president tweeted:
This was a meeting to get information on an opponent, totally legal and done all the time in politics – and it went nowhere.”
Ingraham asked the president’s son about that on the show. She asked:
You want any comment on that, Donnie? Because they’re hitting you on that for contradictions––I mean, they’re calling it worse than contradictions obviously. Donnie what is your reaction to all that?”
Trump Jr.’s reaction was entirely predictable. Trump Jr. said “Hello?” followed by a long silence. He seemed to have panicked and dropped the call. Ingraham said:
We’re going to see if we could reconnect with Donald Trump Jr. on all this, because we can’t seem to hear him. We don’t know where he went.”
After a while, Trump Jr. must have had time to collect himself (or make contact with his father’s team so he could rehearse his response). He called back in and said:
Somehow you got cut off — they started playing the recording and then it got cut off.”
All he would say about his meeting with the Russians was this:
It was a 20 minute meeting, it ended up being about essentially nothing that was relevant to any of these things.”

The fact that Trump Jr. dropped this call was not a coincidence and no one should view it as such. The Trumps are nervous as hell about this and their unraveling is starting to show.
