From Greg Sargent at The Washington Post:
President Trump has spent the past year and a half emphatically declaring that there was “no collusion” between his campaign and Russia, adamantly and angrily insisting that any suggestion to the contrary is nothing but a “hoax.”
Trump is now trying out a new line, which looks a little something like this: There was “no collusion” … “to the best of my knowledge.”
...
Here’s the latest statement from Trump to The Post (emphasis mine):
“Don has received notoriety for a brief meeting, that many politicians would have taken, but most importantly, and to the best of my knowledge,nothing happened after the meeting concluded.”
“This statement was clearly lawyered,” Bob Bauer, former White House counsel under President Barack Obama, told me.

One has to wonder what is about to drop. Probably that A LOT happened after the Veselnitskaya meeting in Trump Tower. Maybe it will come out in the Manafort trial, or perhaps in new indictments from Mueller. One thing is for certain — Trump and his campaign team and administration are a bunch of guilty traitors.
