Today Unindicted Co-conspirator Trump is holding 2 big meetings. The second one is the Group of Eight meeting with the Democratic and Republican leaders of the House and Senate.

He doesn’t even bother denying it because the record of his activities (well, not all of them) is public and it’s not illegal to work for a foreign political …
