Comey only briefed Trump on the golden shower part of the dossier, nothing else. The briefing was the green light to have the MSM start covering the dossier as legitimate news. Clapper gave CNN the green light to start the MSM coverage.
Yup. Comey even told Clapper, “Mission accomplished.”
Comey’s response was when asked point blank by Fox News’ Bret Baier why he only notified Trump about parts of the dossier.
“Why didn’t you tell Trump more? Why didn’t you tell Trump that Hillary had paid for the dossier? Why didn’t you tell Trump that the dossier was not verified and had not been corroborated?” Baier asked.
“That wasn’t my mission,” Comey answered. “My mission was to only reveal that part of the dossier.”
