Lewandowski hearing descends into chaos
The Hill ^ | 09/17/19 | Olivia Beavers

Corey Lewandowski jumped to President Trump's defense on Tuesday during his testimony before the House Judiciary Committee, blasting "Trump haters" and making it clear he will not answer questions the White House wants him to avoid.

Lewandowski, a former campaign aide to Trump who is close to the White House, took aim at Democrats and former special counsel Robert Mueller's investigation in his opening statement, describing the probes as "harassment" while alleging that some critics sought to bring down the president.

"Sadly, the country spent over three years and 40 million taxpayer dollars on these investigations. It is now clear the investigation was populated by many Trump haters who had their own agenda — to try and take down a duly elected president of the United States," Lewandowski said in his opening statement.

"As for actual 'collusion,' or 'conspiracy,' there was none. What there has been, however, is harassment of the president from the day he won the election," he continued.

OAN never showed the person that was asking the questions. Very frustrating, but as usual, the dems were mean and nasty. I think they have anger issues and are highly insecure. That’s what they sound like.

The 3rd part is a bit of a let-down...

The 53 page speech was a little tough to wade through. Get to the point John!

Even CNN (in the break room at work) isn’t calling this as a RAT victory. What network *are* you watching? The Tehran Channel?

One America News. I never paid much attention the Russian collusion bullshit story because I knew it was bullshit from the start. And many times I’ve said here I worked in the union construction industry in NYC. The Laborers Union in the late 70’s and 80’s. I’ve also that although I never worked on any of Trumps jobs men in my local did. And they said he was a fair and generous man to work for a ‘’gentleman’’ and a tough guy in the truest sense. He loved America, he played by the rules and never took shit from anybody and when he was attacked he hit back, and hard. That’s why I didn’t pay much attention to the ‘’Collusion’’ bs. I paid none at all to this story and I said that when I asked the question I did.

Republicans didn’t even need to cross-examine today. When your enemy is in the process of destroying himself, don’t interfere.

What would be great is if a Repub said he'll yield his time to one of the Dems because he'd like to hear more of that.

The third movie was embarrassingly awful. I was hoping for a real winner, but it’s just fodder for MST3K.

“The third movie was embarrassingly awful.”

Agree. So weird, with nothing making sense. The cast of the first movie was a winning group, too.

The most moving, direct, and illuminating statement made by Corey Lewandowski of this hearing:

"I THINK THAT THIS FAKE RUSSIA COLLUSION NARRATIVE IS THE GREATEST CRIME COMMITTED AGAINST THE AMERICAN PEOPLE IN OUR GENERATION IF NOT EVER. THIS IS A PRESIDENT WHO WAS DULY ELECTED BY THE AMERICAN PEOPLE AND MEMBERS OF CERTAIN BODIES REFUSE TO ACCEPT THE ELECTION RESULTS. IF THIS WERE DONE BY A DIFFERENT PRESIDENT TO A DIFFERENT PARTY THE SAME WAY IT WAS DONE TO DONALD TRUMP, THAT PERSON WOULD ALREADY BE THROWN OUT OF OFFICE AND PEOPLE WOULD BE IN JAIL. BUT WHEN YOU SUPPORT HILLARY CLINTON AND BARACK OBAMA ITS A DIFFERENT SET OF RULES. I THINK THE AMERICAN PEOPLE FIND IT UNFAIR AND THERE'S BEEN NO ACCOUNTABILITY AT THE HIGHEST LEVELS OF GOV GOVERNMENT FOR THE FISA ABUSE APPLICATIONS WHICH TRANSPIRED. THE SPYING ON AMERICANS CLEARLY IN VIOLATION OF THE FOURTH AMENDMENT OR THE LIVES RUINED BECAUSE THEY WANTED TO SUPPORT A CANDIDATE FOR PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES AND IT'S SHAMEFUL."
