I'm not sure Trumpy knows what 'under oath' means :lol: They've probably just asked him to exude confidence in his response.

Just me or was that was weird? The reporter asked "did he ask for a pledge of loyalty from you?", which makes no sense. Of course Comey didn't ask Trump for loyalty. And then Trump seemed to deny asking Comey to pledge his allegiance under oath. Does he think Comey was under oath at the dinner?

Yeah found that very odd.

If there's nothing to disprove it, then Trump should be fine with saying that.
In that case I'm not really understanding why a bigger deal hasn't been made of Trump basically admitting on TV that he fired Comey because of the Russia investigation? Surely it doesn't really matter what he said to Comey about the Flynn case when he's already gone and said that?

Just for you @matherto




This sums everything about Trump up, for me.

That deposition — 170 transcribed pages — offers extraordinary insights into Trump’s relationship with the truth. Trump’s falsehoods were unstrategic — needless, highly specific, easy to disprove. When caught, Trump sometimes blamed others for the error or explained that the untrue thing really was true, in his mind, because he saw the situation more positively than others did.

Fifth Amendment would be his only hope under oath. No way he would keep it together for 3-4 hours...

Anyone see Gowdy was picked to lead the House Oversight Committee? I wonder if he'll have the determined vigor to look into the Russian meddling and Trump obstruction as he did with his Benghazi crusade.

He will be all over the leaks, but not the Russian stuff.

Where's the logic here? He passed his notes to a friend to pass to the media because what? He was scared of giving them to a journalist? Are all journalists frighting or something? This 6ft 8in former director of the FBI was scared of meeting up with a journalist :lol:

Scared of getting caught? How long has he been in the game? If he wanted to leak it to a journalist without getting caught he'd have done so without breaking stride. Maybe he could have popped them into David Johnson's letterbox and assume nobody would know it was him. Also, he quite clearly has no issue with it being known he provided the notes, he's talking about it quite freely in an open hearing with the Senate Intelligence Committee for feck sake.

I said it during the testimony yesterday -- Comey's opening statement of galvanising the FBI (and the IC as a whole) was in anticipating of Trump and his surrogates' attacks. He is one of them. It serves the purpose of emboldening the agents to continue the investigation and the more the surrogates attack Comey, the harder they will try. They are attacking the IC as a whole.

To call him 'not man enough,' will surely just piss the IC guys who put their lives on the line every day!

As they said before, these guys are playing chess whilst Trump (and surrogates) are playing checkers.
