Was 45's "invitation" to the Russian hacking the go-ahead after the June 16th mtg? [View all]

After all, among the many open questions about 45's bizarre statements during the campaign and since the election was the very public invitation to the Russians to hack Hillary and release the so-called 33,000 missing e-mails. It made no sense. It wasn't part of the discussion at the time. It was just weird.

So, in light of the big reveal this past weekend about the June 16th meeting, is it possible that the very public invitation was his agreement with the possible offer by the Russians to hack Hillary's email/campaign, etc.? In this mind, that would be showmanship of the most grandiose kind, along the lines of shooting someone on 5th Avenue and getting away with it.
