It's unclear if Donald Trump Jr. felt left out by his dad and Violet (2025)sister and brother-in-law being in the news a lot more than he is, but hot damn he overdid it a bit when he tattooed "we colluded" on his forehead.
SEE ALSO: Trump reportedly couldn't find a hotel room in Germany for G20 summitNo, no, he didn't really (although how surprised would you be, on a scale of 1 to not-at-all?). But his Tuesday tweets had the same effect.
Just as The New York Timeswas hitting "publish" on a story headlined "Russian Dirt on Clinton? ‘I Love It,’ Donald Trump Jr. Said," that would prove Trump Jr. had lied when previously describing the nature of his meeting with a Russian lawyer, Trump Jr. tweeted the damning emails himself.

Late last week, The New York Timesbegan publishing articles about a meeting held on June 9, 2016, at Trump Tower. A British friend of Donald Trump Jr. set up the meeting, which involved Trump Jr., then-campaign manager Paul Manafort, Trump's son-in-law and adviser Jared Kushner, and a Russian lawyer connected to Moscow, Natalia Veselnitskaya.
After the first story, Trump Jr. said the meeting was just about an adoption program. Presented with evidence from The New York Timesthat said the meeting was about information that might damage the candidacy of Hillary Clinton, Trump Jr. said OK, sure, we talked about Clinton. Then, Tuesday morning, knowing the Timeshad the emails that led up to the meeting, Trump Jr. went ahead and published them himself.
The emails make it clear Trump Jr. understood this meeting was about information damaging to Clinton that came from a Russian government source, and was part of a campaign by the Russian government to help his dad win the presidency. In response to all this, Trump Jr., as the Timesheadline says, wrote, in an email now publicly available, "I love it."
The tweets prove Trump Jr. lied about the purpose of the meeting, and, if you're looking for a possible smoking gun of collusion , then -- as James Comey says -- lordy.
It's currently unclear how the Timesgot ahold of the emails or what this means for Special Counsel Mueller's investigation.
