Comey is so stupid he included an unnecessary detail just to spice up the story without even bothering to create evidence to verify it.

Excessive detail is often a tell that someone is lying. They know what they are saying is a lie, and by embellishing their story with detail they think they make it more "real" and convincing.

Also a “tell” for a liar is when they tell you how honest they are...tge minute somebody tells me they’re honest I know they’re lying through their teeth to me.
