Trump Blames Obama Administration: My Son Could Only Meet With That Russian Because She Was Let In

The Hill reports:

President Trump on Thursday appeared to blame the Obama administration for allowing a Russian lawyer who met with his eldest son to enter the United States.

The president appeared to cite a report in The Hill that former Attorney General Loretta Lynch allowed Russian attorney Natalia Veselnitskaya to travel into the country early last year.

“She was here because of Lynch,” Trump said during a press conference in Paris with French President Emmanuel Macron.

The president defended Donald Trump Jr., saying that “most people” would have taken that the meeting with Veselnitskaya where he was promised damaging information on Hillary Clinton.
