Mr. Ranyard:  You're twenty years my senior, but we both dinosaurs.  In today's world, political, business and persona, it is more typical to grab every advantage possible.  Considerations of fairness, equality or compassion are not "part of the game."  Get what you, when you can, if you can....seems to be the basic rule.  I won't claim it's limited to the "right wing" of politics, clearly it's not....there are "lefties" who would have been just as eager as Donald, Jr was to gain advantage by consorting with the Russians.  Naive?.........let me substitute two words....honorable and decent.  my respect to you...Gary Crum
