Legal expert Jonathan Turley called Donald Trump Jr.'s meeting with a Kremlin-based lawyer was not collusion, though he did term it "amateur hour in Trump Tower" in an op-ed in The Hill.

Trump Jr. agreed to meet with Russian lawyer, Natalia Veselnitskaya, after she said she had damaging information about Hillary Clinton, the Democratic Party presidential nominee. The New York Times published the report Sunday, citing three advisers to the White House, and said the meeting was also attended by President Donald Trump's campaign chairman at the time, Paul J. Manafort, and Trump's son-in-law Jared Kushner.

Definitely an amateur in campaign law.  Manafort had been involved with presidential campaigns before.  He should have known better and put a stop to it.  What seems to be overlooked is the fact the premise of meeting was based on supposed illegal contributions.  This isn't some salacious prostitutes whizzing on a bed nonsense and it's not like the Clintons haven't been implicated in shady money deals before.
I disagree.  Circle gets the square.
