Comey Testimony

[Catatonic]

I think it would do some of you good to read this:
Did We Learn Anything New in Comey's SSCI Hearing?

I read it and one thing I picked up on is Comey states and phrases his opinions as if they are factual.

"[A]lthough the law required no reason at all to fire an FBI director, the administration then chose to defame me and more importantly the FBI by saying that the organization was in disarray, that it was poorly led, that the workforce had lost confidence in its leader. Those were lies, plain and simple."

An obvious set of opinions by Trump to which Comey replied with his own opinions.

What comes to mind is the old adage that a person who is their own lawyer, has a fool for a lawyer.
Comey was reacting emotionally and confusing his opinions for facts.

True.
And then we have Trump's lawyer who is certainly no fool, he even had the common sense to get Trump's twitter account hacked and change his password, locking him out for 37 hours.

This is not a binary world.
I don't accept anybody's tweets or testimony as a whole.
I analyze each significant point and never make binary assignment of quality.

So Comey is lying about his meetings with Drumpf?

So Comey is lying about his meetings with Drumpf?

I don't think so but there are a lot of subjective statements and opinions within his testimony to be of concern.
As with most situations two people having a conversation will have different memories of events and what was said.

If only there had been other people in the room........ I wonder why Trump asked them to leave......

One thing that will clear all this up is when Trump releases his tapes of this conversation and meetings. .... remember those

It's not subjective when Drumpf is basically denying Comey's entire testimony. One of them has to be lying..

The Trump apologist on here will say it's no big deal. He could wipe his A* with the declaration of independence and they would rave about him recycling

And scabies, don't forget those

I only heard two areas of disagreements.
From what I could tell ... they were disagreeing over opinions.
Sort of like us on here.

He could stand in the middle of 5th avenue and shoot someone....
He brags about the denialism of his base, and they eat it up like it's a compliment. Freaking bizarre political landscape, blows my mind.

 

[Catatonic]

Fake.

No, I just like facts.
Opinions are like buttholes, everybody has one.

Shouldn't be surprising, Obama was the same way.

The same way in a much different way.

Facts are like a bidet, they tickle your opinions? I dunno I tried.....
