Trump and Giuliani Are Lying Liars, as Usual

Posted by Melissa McEwan at Wednesday, December 19, 2018
Donald Trump has repeatedly claimed that his real estate business had "nothing to do with Russia." His lawyer, Rudy Giuliani, has claimed the same, asserting as recently as Sunday that there was no signed letter of intent to build a Trump Tower in Moscow.

But, naturally, all of that was horseshit.

Kate Sullivan at CNN reports:
A newly obtained document shows [Donald] Trump signed a letter of intent to move forward with negotiations to build a Trump Tower in Russia, despite his attorney Rudy Giuliani claiming on Sunday the document was never signed.

CNN's Chris Cuomo obtained a copy of the signed letter of intent that set the stage for negotiations for Trump condominiums, a hotel, and commercial property in the heart of Moscow. The letter is dated October 28, 2015, and bears the President's signature.
Welp.

During a normal presidential administration, this would be a massive scandal. During the Trump administration, it's just another day. Sob.
