ETA never noticed Brennan and Clapper over to the side there.

“It’s possible” but “unlikely” is actually what Comey said. Changes the whole meaning, right?

What a bunch of gibberish.

The exact quote:

“It always struck me and still strikes me as unlikely, and I would have been able to say with high confidence about any other president I dealt with, but I can’t,” he said. “It is stunning and I wish wasn’t saying it, but it’s the truth.”

There’s a lot of ambiguity here and the key phrase is “high confidence” and “I wish I wasn’t saying this”. He just can’t be sure about Trump.

Yep. He just jumbles his slurs and lies all together like a stew and serves it up. It doesn’t have to make sense if you already want to believe it.

Sanders - "Inside the Situation Room as President is briefed on Syria "

It was misleading but not a lie. She didn’t claim it was held during the missile strike. Likely, according to the WH press corps it was a few days earlier.
There are plenty of bona fide lies by her that should be exposed - this wasn’t one.

Any guy who’s paying people not to speak the truth about him and threatens financial ruin if they do, is likely to be easily compromised. The problem is this “guy” is the POTUS.

He doesn’t even realize how his projection tells the whole world what he’s done and how much it’s worrying him.

This is why I say we’re going to be sick and sad when we see what he becomes before he’s mercifully led away to get the help he needs. Did you see months ago one Dr. Allen Frances who literally wrote the NPD section of the DSM said Trump isn’t mentally ill because his narcissism doesn’t cause him distress? Ay caramba I ask you.

Trump creates high suspicion, because Trump, with full Fifth Avenue confidence, believes values are for losers. To prove that Trump, in plain sight, pisses on every value he comes across.

Except not Putin’s.
