When one senator after the other thanks Comey for his service to the country then you know that the thing they call a hearing is nothing more than a disgusting political side show. The senators would rather engage in meaningless theatrics than serious, worthwhile endeavors.
Top 10 things we learned today:
1. Trump was never under investigation.
2. Trump did not obstruct justice.
3. Trump did not collude with Russia.
4. Russia did not alter the election outcome.
5. Comey leaked his own memo.
6. Loretta Lynch pressured Comey to cover for Hillary Clinton.
7. There was ample evidence to put Hillary in jail but Comey chose not to pursue it.
8. CNN and other fake news outlets have been lying / making things up this entire time.
9. The Democratic Party no longer has the ability to scream “RUSSIA” every time Trump tries to do something.
10. The Russia story is dead - any democrat who continue to push it will look foolish and insane to the American people.
On May 3rd Sen. Grassley asked Comey, who was under oath at the time,”Have you ever been the source of anonymous leaks to the Press?”, Comey answered “Never”. PERJURY
My take on Trump’s comment about “Tapes” is that the FBI or DOJ had together with the former administration bugged the White House. There were articles describing the un-secure state of the White House, hence those trips to Marlago for a more secure environment with heads of state and other important discussions. Until the White House is debugger, err ah, refinished inside to address security measures... then all the those Tapes were not Trump’s but rather the Spy Agencies/DoJ/Deep State. Trump is too coy and many do not have the temperment to understand the nunance of what Trump speaks/tweets.
Bump for reference
Comey came across as corrupt.
