1. "As reported by Reuters" "Yeah, because I called them thrice, not twice! So, yeah, take that!"

[madaboutharry]

2. "NO RECOLLECTION" is a non-denial denial.

They are weasel words. This is a statement that an attorney puts out when they haven't yet gotten their client to tell them the truth.

[Kablooie]

11. In Trumpland that is a rock solid, "Yes, I did it."

[malaise]

3. Aren't we talking about meetings here

Why TF is he talking about calls?

[mcar]

10. That's some lame obfuscation

I never called him, honest. No, dipshit, you met with him F2F.

[malaise]

13. Maybe not - Reuters now saying there were many more contacts with Kushner and

Russian envoys

[mcar]

16. And he doesn't remember any of them?

[malaise]

18. Of course not

Amazing

4. ...

5. It's amazing how many of these slimeballs have selective memory loss

[NightWatcher]

6. It's gonna flip his shit when he gets to hear his voice on these calls next week.

Oh THOSE calls?

[Solly Mack]

7. Yeah, yeah. He doesn't recall.

Do they ever?

Snort.

[TexasTowelie]

8. Reagan was in his 70s and had Alzheimer's when he used that line.

What is Jared's excuse?

[WinkyDink]

9. "I don't recall" means "I'm guilty, but good luck proving it." Iran-Contra:

12. They met in person, is why.

[L. Coyote]

14. Everybody is lawyering up, just like Twitter said they should long ago.

15. I don't understand the strategy of a statement like that.

Generally you're not going to say anything at this point. If you are compelled to comment, either you issue a flat denial or something like "My client is looking forward to having all the facts come out." Even Flynn's guy saying "My client has a story to tell" is better than "No recollection". That's mind boggling.

17. "But officer, I don't recall running that stop sign"

[Amaryllis]

19. Why do they all have such faulty memories? Seems to be an epidemic with anyone close to T.

Must be catching.
