   Like the Democrat cunts and MSM didn't have any collusion with   
   the Clinton crime family.   
      
   Amid mounting questions at the White House about Russia, three   
   prominent members of President Trump's family -- his sons Eric   
   Trump and Donald Trump Jr., and Eric's wife, Lara -- have ramped   
   up their engagement with the Republican Party's national   
   political operation, having met privately with GOP leaders to   
   share their concerns and outlook.   
      
   Their most recent effort came Thursday, when the president's   
   eldest sons and Lara Trump visited the Republican National   
   Committee's headquarters in Washington. Those three family   
   members, who were invited by the RNC, stayed for about two   
   hours, according to four people who were not authorized to speak   
   publicly.   
      
   Their appearance at the RNC irked at least two prominent   
   Republicans who were briefed on the session, who wondered   
   whether it was appropriate for the president's sons, who run the   
   Trump family real estate business, to be highly involved in   
   discussing the party's strategy and resources.   
      
   But two other people familiar with the meeting said it was   
   appropriate for the president's sons and daughter-in-law, who   
   all volunteered for Trump's campaign, to huddle with Republican   
   leaders and offer their perspective on what would be most   
   helpful to President Trump ahead of the 2018 midterm elections   
   and the 2020 presidential race.   
      
   Eric and Donald Jr. run the Trump Organization and manage its   
   numerous properties and branding projects. Lara Trump is now a   
   political operative, following her hire earlier this year as a   
   consultant for a Trump-affiliated digital company.   
      
   A number of RNC figures and Trump allies also attended the   
   Thursday meeting: RNC chair Ronna Romney McDaniel, RNC chief of   
   staff Sara Armstrong, former Trump campaign digital strategist   
   Brad Parscale, Trump campaign committee director Michael   
   Glassner, and former White House deputy chief of staff Katie   
   Walsh, who now advises a pro-Trump nonprofit group.   
      
   Two people familiar with the meeting insisted that the Trump   
   family did not pressure the RNC to follow their suggestions or   
   to let them control aspects of the party. A third person said   
   the family members made clear that they were frustrated with the   
   way, in their view, the president has been drawn into various   
   controversies and want the Republican Party to do what it can to   
   help reignite his political base.   
      
   Donald Trump Jr., in particular, has been an active presence in   
   the party over the past year and has strong relationships with   
   many Republican officials. He regularly delivers speeches to GOP   
   groups, including one in Indiana this month.   
      
   White House officials declined on Saturday to comment on the   
   meeting.
