Exclusive: Briton who set up Trump Tower meeting denies Russian conspiracy, saying his offer 'was pure puffery'
Rob Goldstone explains his involvement in episode 3 of The Telegraph's Crossfire podcast

The Briton who set up the infamous Trump Tower meeting has denied being part of a Russian conspiracy, saying his offer of Hillary Clinton dirt before the 2016 election was just “a bit of pure puffery”.

Rob Goldstone, a former Fleet Street journalist turned PR guru, told The Telegraph that his controversial approach to the Trump campaign touting information that would "incriminate" his rival was over-hyped.
'
Mr Goldstone said he only made the approach on behalf of his client, an Azerbaijani pop star, and deliberately exaggerated an email to Donald Trump’s son Don Jr which made worldwide headlines when discovered.
