"SNIP...........

Donald Trump Jr. went hunting in Canada after giving up his Secret Service protection, The New York Times reported Wednesday.

The Times reporter, Luke Dittrich, heard from a friend that Trump Jr. was traveling to Canada's Yukon Territory and was able to track him down at an airport in the region as he flew home.

The reporter introduced himself to Trump Jr. and asked if the two could talk about the trip.

“The Times. I never know where you guys are coming from,” Trump Jr. replied.

I don't think that this was just a little side trip. There is something more here than meets the eye. I would like to know what he was really up to.
