Washington
DONALD Trump defended his eldest son on Wednesday over emails showing his embrace of Russian efforts to support the billionaire's presidential campaign in a shock disclosure set to fuel even more speculation over Moscow's suspected role in the vote.
The revelation puts the President's son at the centre of a burgeoning scandal involving multiple US investigations into whether President Trump's associates colluded with Moscow in its efforts to tilt the 2016 election in the Republican's favour.
