“I actually asked him, yes,” Trump said. “I said, if it’s possible, would you let me know, am I under investigation? He said, you are not under investigation.”
Right and who is going to believe that? Certainly not anyone in this group.
Trump says many things other than the truth.
Trump thinks he is writing his memoirs or something. What he just said is not something you admit to while you are still in office. Those things tend to get played in congressional hearings.
This statement is every bit as true as his statement that Elijah Cummings told him he would go down as one of the great presidents in history.
He totally told me I wasn’t under investigation. And I totally made up my mind to fire him then and there for that Hillary email thing. Totally.
He has put in the amount of work he expected to do in the presidency.
Newest addition to the Oval’s (now know by Ovaltine due to the diminution of its splendor by the current occupying ass) .
He told me that I wasn’t under investigation while we were eating this beautiful chocolate cake. I mean, it was the best chocolate cake you can imagine. Beautiful. And huge pieces, too. You can have your cake and eat it, too. You ever heard that before? I just created it last week. You know, you just get more. Lots more. More than anywhere. You get tired of having and eating so much beautiful cake.
Sadly, the only thing Trump learned from the huge mess he created after accusing Obama of spying on him is that others in his administration and even in Congress will have to clean up for him. It’s going to take a colossal backhoe of a scooper to clean up this pile of dung.
This is pretty easy to confirm or refute.
“And did you ask, ‘am I under investigation?'” Holt asked.
“I actually asked him, yes,” Trump said. “I said, if it’s possible, would you let me know, am I under investigation? He said, you are not under investigation.”
He has NO CONCEPT that he just said a very bad thing. He thinks that by saying this, it exonerates him and his base will buy it.
If he EVER does another interview after this, I would be very surprised.
NBC analyst Pete Williams canvassed some ex-prosecutors and attorneys he knows, and they all said that Trump hadn’t done anything illegal or violative of Judicial canons. Some also said that it just might be politically stupid.
Yeah, it might…
Trump said that he asked Comey whether he was the subject of a probe.
“He told me (No). I mean, he told me that,” Trump told NBC News’ Lester Holt in an interview.
Well, what Comey undoubtedly said was that he could not disclose such information. We routinely read Trump tweets and statements that do not reflect the facts. So he is either lying if he knows the facts or crazy if he convinces himself of an alternative reality.
Trump seems to think that whatever he believes is reality. That’s probably why he repeats himself several times in a sort of OCD disorder that works like this, magically: repeat three times whatever you want to be true, and that will become the truth.
And the congress GOP are grinding their teeth into oblivion because this is grinding their legislative agenda to a halt. Now they have to deal with this fallout and having to appoint a new FBI director in addition to what they were already planning.
if ya watched something other than Fox News you’d know that the police are allowed to lie to you…
