The internet turns the Donald Trump Jr saga into memes

President Trump's son says he didn't tell his dad about an offer from Russia to help with his election campaign.

Donald Trump Jr has admitted he met with a lawyer who was allegedly linked to the Kremlin and who claimed to have damaging information about Hillary Clinton.

The US president has released a statement applauding his son's "transparency" and describing him as a "high-quality person".

Here are the best jokes and memes.

Many focus on the wording of the US president's statement.

American TV personality Jon Lovett tweeted: "'High-quality' is how you talk about wood flooring, not your son".

Comedian Jesse Case put "Every year on my birthday my dad mails me a card telling me I'm a high quality person".

Radio host Sam Sanders added "Isn't calling someone a 'high-quality person' a phrase you use when you're breaking up with them and you say things like 'it's not you, it's me'".

"My son is a high-quality person, made from a state-of-the-art blend of synthetic fibers and hair cream," Depeche tweeted.

Others called on iconic moments from film and TV.

Robin adapted a famous scene from Star Wars, so Darth Vader says "Luke, you are a high quality person".

Here's one for Arrested Development fans.

Amy compared Donald Trump Jr to the character Gob.

Talia went more high brow and referenced The Godfather.

She used a gif of Fredo Corleone.

Others used stock photos of fathers and sons bonding.

Robert tweeted a picture of a fishing trip, with the caption: "Son, I don't say it enough. You are very high quality".

Oliver used a dad telling his child: "Yes son. you ARE a high quality person".

Finally, there were those that were just plain weird.

The Twitter account @fartpowder uploaded a photo of a transparent Gameboy.
