Jay Sekulow told news outlets earlier this month that the president "didn't sign off on anything," and "wasn't involved" in drafting a statement Trump Jr. used to defend his meeting with Natalia Veselnitskaya. Trump Jr.'s initial claim was that Veselnitskaya wanted to discuss a program about the adoption of Russian children.
According to a Washington Post report published Monday, the president was behind the adoption statement, which was proven false days later.
Trump Jr. took the meeting on the premise that he would receive damaging information about Hillary Clinton, Trump's then-rival in the 2016 election.
