It's simple. Trump Jr. took a chance sharing the emails ahead of NYT because they were confident his transparency would be received with praise from the drunk off kool aid trumptards. They don't even know it.

Yeah, this is actually the Big Boom Bang. This should be enough for some indictments. Hopefully Mueller wraps all this up by Christmas

GOP Sen. Chuck Grassley is demanding to know why Natalia Veselnitskaya, the Russian lawyer who met with Donald Trump Jr., was still in the US at the time of their meeting last summer when she was supposed to have left months beforehand.
Top GOP senator: Why was Russian lawyer who met with Trump Jr. in the US?
Veselnitskaya was denied a visa and was supposed to leave the US in January 2016.

That appears to be false. I saw some Trump tweets on reddit asking about emails in May of last year.

And they're clearly lying about "nothing happening" as well, since Trump started publicly talking about having dirt on Hillary shortly after this meeting. Just the explanation at each stage is so clearly phony and going out of their way to try to casually claim some form of innocence that isnt believable at all.
"No such meetings took place, the whole thing is a dangerous hoax from Dems."
-Proof meeting happened
"Oh THAT meeting, well sure but that was nothing, it was about adoption."
-Proof meeting was not about adoption
"It was mostly about adoption but yeah they kinda contacted us at first about info that could aide our campaign but it turned out to be a front and we mostly discussed adoption."
-Proof that the meeting was explicitly an effort to help Russian govenment collude to help Trump campaign by offering dirt on Hillary, no mention of adoption
"Yeah that was the meeting, but they didn't actually have any dirt and we quickly realized nothing was happening here so we left and went straight home and that was the end. Also the other guys were unaware of the nature, the Pres was unaware and we really didnt even know who we were meeting. the whole thing was just a silly misunderstanding really..."
It really is reminiscent of when Hansen walks out and the guys like "yeah I drove 3 hours to come here and tell her I wasnt really gonna do anything and warn her to be careful on the internet..."

They're actually
ing for him in a passive-aggressive way by claiming that his actions were merely stupid and any suggestion that they were criminal is "unhinged".
