Conway on Trump Jr Story: People Want to Convert ‘Wishful Thinking into Hard Evidence’ of Collusion
EXCERPT:
CONWAY: "Don has said very clearly that the meeting was taken. He didn't know the name of the person who was coming. He certainly knew the person who set it up. It was somebody he had known through the Miss Universe pageant that the Trump family, I guess, Mr. Trump had owned and managed for a while. Fine. He goes into the meeting. He says it was vague. It was ambiguous. It was very obvious almost immediately that there was no helpful or meaningful information. And that the meeting quickly turned over to the matter of Russian adoption, which is probably the pretext from for the entire meeting from the very beginning. No information was gained. No action was taken. No follow-up whatsoever. I think what's important here is that we're at day 200 or so of no evidence of Russian collusion. People think — they want to convert wishful thinking into hard evidence. What we do know that actually happened is not Russian collusion but Russian conversation between President Putin and President Trump --"
DOOCY: "Sure."
CONWAY: "-- three short days ago."
