President Donald Trump's son-in-law and senior adviser Jared Kushner said in a rare interview that the meeting he had with his brother-in-law and campaign leadership in June 2016 with a Russian attorney was a"clown show."
Swan pushed back on Kushner's response."It had Russia in the subject line," Swan said in the interview. Kushner responded by pointing out that he was overwhelmed by emails during the campaign. Veselnitskaya has since been charged with obstruction of justice in a separate case. She has not entered a plea.
ABC News' conversation with Swan follows the release of his sit-down interview with Kushner, which aired on HBO Sunday evening. In Swan's conversation with ABC, he said Kushner was"very sincere" when he said this."He absolutely believes it, and it's not the first time he said that," Swan said. Kushner told Swan during the interview that can"understand the appearance" of a conflict of interest, but that he didn't know that Citigroup was discussing business with the Kushner company during the time of the meeting."I was meeting with a lot of executives when we got here," Kushner said.
