It is interesting that the Washington Post- a Trump hating organ, actually found points on Russian collusion regarding Hillary Clinton...

Fox news did some analysis on the meeting of Trump Jr with a Russian lawyer. He doesn’t have a job with the administration and doesn’t need to disclose foreign contacts. Neither did he as a campaign helper solicit a foreigner for help. A lawyer pointed out that it is not illegal to go and see what someone has or wants.
Trump Jr. said that the Russian lawyer said that she had information that could“incriminate Hillary”. Trump Jr. later said that made no sense. Yet as we see in the WP article, the Steele affair might have been the object referred to. Russians knew her people were looking to Russian contacts during the campaign.
Donald Trump Jr.'s meeting with Russian lawyer: What to know
quoting the WP article; “the Clinton campaign proactively sought dirt on Trump from Russian government sources. They did it through cutouts. In April 2016, Clinton campaign lawyer Marc Elias retained opposition research firm Fusion GPS to compile incriminating information on Trump. Fusion GPS in turn hired Christopher Steele, a former British MI6 operative with sources among Russian government officials. The result was the salacious dossier, whose sources included “a senior Russian Foreign Ministry figure” and “a former top level intelligence officer still active in the Kremlin.” Steele’s work was paid for by Clinton’s presidential campaign and the Democratic National Committee. That means a paid agent of the Clinton campaign approached Russian officials for damaging material on Trump.”

So the Russian lawyer might have been trying to get the information to the Trumps that Hillary's campaign wasn't playing fair and was making contact with Russians via cutouts in their quest to get dirt on Donald Trump.
