9. What did he say in that tweet that was new?

He repeated what Junior had said over a year ago (which is that it was a meeting about getting into about an opponent, and that such a thing is par for the course in politics).

And he repeated what he has said many times before, that he didn't know about the meeting ahead of time.

We've also known for quite some time that Trump did, in fact, advise his son regarding his statement about the meeting.

What part is new? Again, this matter is of importance and may be key to sinking the Trump ship. But Trump's tweet this morning is just a repeat.
