Why Didn't Russia Help Trump Win in 2016?

Why Didn't they Give the Kompromat on Hillary to Don Jr. at the Trump Tower Meeting?

...because it was always a Fusion GPS/ Perkins Coei Set-Up!

One of the founders of the research firm behind the controversial Russian dossier met with a Kremlin-linked lawyer before and after she sat down with President Trump’s son and other campaign officials at the Trump Tower during the 2016 election, Fox News reported on Tuesday.

Glenn Simpson, a former Wall Street Journal reporter and co-founder of Fusion GPS, was with Russian lawyer Natalia Veselnitskaya at a Manhattan federal courtroom just hours before the Trump Tower meeting on June 9, 2016, Fox News reported, citing a source. He met with her again after the meeting, the report said.

Veselnitskaya, promising “dirt” on Hillary Clinton, met with Donald Trump Jr. and other campaign operatives – including Jared Kushner and former campaign manager Paul Manafort. Trump Jr. later said the discussion was about Russian adoptions.

But the meeting took place at a critical time when Fusion GPS was being paid by a Russian oligarch and by the Clinton campaign and the Democratic National Committee while it enlisted former British spy Christopher Steele to dig up damaging information about Trump through his contacts in Moscow, Fox News said.

The report said Simpson’s meeting Veselnitskaya and Fusion GPS’ being bankrolled by the DNC, the Clinton campaign and Russian interests raises new questions about what role the firm played in the presidential election.

The original plan was to tie Trump and Paul Manafort to Russia, as the Ukrainians had given the Clinton Campaign Kompromat on Manafort (the forged Black-Ledger) that later served as the basis for Manafort's FARA conviction.
