The Fox News host then asked Trump Jr. if he would have gone to the proper authorities if the Russian lawyer had delivered any information that seemed to threaten national security or be of an illegal nature.

“A hundred percent I would bring it to the proper authorities. There’s nothing that I would ever do to endanger this country,” Trump Jr. said. “I think the reason we fought so hard during this campaign, whether it was my father and the work he put into it, whether it was the rest of our family and the efforts that we put into it … we’d do anything for this country. So we’re never going to put that in jeopardy. Ever.”

When asked about the Left’s “hysterical” reaction to Trump Jr.’s June 2016 meeting, the president’s son said, “Listen, I think politics is a dirty game. We’ve seen the sides that they’ve taken, we’ve seen the commentary they’ve had on my father. I think it’s a little bit ridiculous and overplayed. And I think people are getting that. The media have really done themselves a disservice by picking sides so flagrantly. They’ve really driven people to actually having to think about it because it’s just a tough game.”

“I think the mainstream media has probably done themselves a pretty big disservice by going so far, by going so extreme, by going so sensational. And I think it’s pushing regular people away because they want to see what my father campaigned on,” Trump Jr. added. “They want to see jobs — they want to see the numbers that he’s putting up. You know, the stock market keeps breaking hits. We have the all-time highest employment in the country, in terms of overall numbers. All these things that he promised he would do — they’re happening. They’re actually happening, and that’s not getting any coverage. And that’s a real shame.”[lz_pagination]
