From filmmaker Michael Kirk and his team, "Trump's Showdown" traces key moments in the ongoing, high-stakes saga surrounding President Trump's confrontation with federal investigators - key moments like the July 2017 revelation of the June 2016 Trump Tower meeting.
In this excerpt, see why the way the president decided to address the impending revelation of the meeting, in the words of Washington Post reporter Carol Leonnig, had his lawyers “losing their minds” -- and why Robert Mueller was paying close attention.

    Well Manafort's financial difficulties and his dealings are on the record. Kushner also has or has had financial issues. So here we have at least two people with financial liabilities and one with a potential connection to liabilities or a potential gain either politically or financially. Then we have a high profile Russian lawyer representing Russian Oligarchs who, after watching the Australian Four Corners, seemed obviously incredible and visibly nervous. Perhaps she was remembering the ricin attacks which is Russia's MO.

    For low comprehension viewers, the idea here is, "Believe the authoritative art form we call 'narrated documentary.' So what if 3,000 American companies were doing business in Russia? So what if Biden's pipeline decision hugely favors Russia when Trump had declined to open that pipeline? So what if the details of this meeting are fully disclosed now and amount to much less than this film implies? Just believe our general theme. You don't need any other information."

    @@superlyger Trump is definitely aggressive, but I don't believe he has any long term vision. I like a few of the things he has gotten done.. particularly Iran. However, I can't stomach him, otherwise. He is destructive... bigly. The damage to the GOP, political process & international relations will take many years to repair. His obvious contempt for the rule of law is unforgivable. I don't accociate him with either party because of his record & demeanor. Credible evidence of crimes are surfacing all around him. I bear no grudge against republicans. I didnt vote for him, but he was voted in, nonetheless. We are all in this together, like it or not. I'm not trying to convince anyone of anything. These are just my opinions.
