Yep and disclose that fact, and answer the questions posed to him by Congress about those conversations. And he lied. He said he had never met Kislyak, and had not had a conversation with "any Russian" for more than two years. That is a simple, bald-faced lie. Not even a "I don't recall" level of lying. And that is the important part. He has so little care for the truth or respect for Congress that he will just say whatever he thinks at the moment with no effort to recall, consult his social secretary, or check his calendar. His first instinct is to lie. THAT is what this story is about. All the other stuff - even the content of what he lied about - is secondary. Kislyak is a diplomat. Donald's supposed to rub shoulders with those people.
