2) Fox News hasn't confirmed the story yet.

Is that how you feel about Trump’s tax returns and other government documents that weren’t obtained legally?

It's not against the law to take a meeting with a leader of a large foreign corporation.
And it's not illegal to lie about it afterwards, as long as you're not lying to the cops.
So what law was broken?

Are you suggesting that making deals for your family by using your position in the government isn’t illegal? At the very least, it’s a far greater example of the “bad behavior” you don’t want to reward from Trump.
