Let’s just say that CBS was NOT lying. Then what?

Well, then you have a J. Edgar Hoover situation, where Comey had been sitting on evidence of Obstruction of Justice, which, of course is illegal.

Why would it be illegal? Easy, because that meant that Comey could BLACKMAIL Trump, as Hoover was known to do on a regular basis...and perhaps he was blackmailing? Who knows, but that’s why you just cannot sit on criminal wrongdoing, if it really did exist.

So, per CBS’s own statement, they should be calling for charges to be brought against Comey. Are they? Do I need to answer that?

"Comey testified Trump ordered him to call off the investigation of Flynn and to publicly clear the President of wrongdoing"

The first part of that is true for sure. Comey testified that he took Trump's remarks relating to the Flynn investigation as an order from Trump, period, full stop. That's how Comey took the exchange. Now, "the exchange" may be fiction, because the only people in the room were Comey and Trump. You know the advice to males, never be alone in a room with a female, because they can make up anything, and the fiction will be trouble, at least. Same holds here. Being in a one-on-one carries risks for both sides. Comey came out of that meeting with accusations.

And the second part is true too. According to Comey, Trump said he was considering ordering Comey to undertake an investigation of Trump, in order to clear Trump. Comey counseled against this, because being under investigation connotes suspicion of wrongdoing.

Lies everywhere. I saw this on OAN just a little while ago - discrepancy in dates regarding Comey’s ‘leak’:

Comey's answers were couched in such a manner that both sides were able to hear what they wanted.

For example:

It is fascinating to see how the media distorts everything to a predetermined political bias.

I know understand how you can read any headline and see that everything wrong any where in the world is the fault of Trump. The media says that Iranians blame Trump for the shooting in their Parliament. Some in the UK blame Trump for the terrorist attacks. Trump is to blame for miles of ice falling of arctic glaciers. If your car has a flat tire or the trains don’t run, it is the fault of Trump.

Really?

I watched those hearings. Maybe Trump should order CBS closed.

In tomorrow’s press briefing spicer should call out the cbs guy and ask him what their comment was based upon. When they defer he should say he’ll will freeze over before you get back in here before providing an explanation good bye. Next. NBC you reported last evening

All of the fake news stations plus some of the leading democratic politicians should be forced to pay for propagating these lies and wasting tax payer money.

but if one didn’t watch the hearings you would get the impression Trump said..

“I order you to drop the investigation of Flynn and make a public statement clearing my name”..... or something

They just make crap up. Especially today after Comey failed to deliver for them. Why are we surprised, doesn’t anyone remember the fake news during the primaries, faked-up polls and all?

See BS. Hear BS. Smell BS.
