Why Did Trump Go On Lester Holt And Contradict Trump Surrogates?

[Winston]

Firing Comey did nothing to the investigation on Russia. Trump actually said he wants to get to the bottom of Russian involvement in our elections.

Getting rid of the guy in charge of investigating your campaign is impeding progress of the investigation..

and trump's a liar about wanting to get to the bottom of the russian investigation. trump wants to get to the bottom of this investigation like kirstie alley wants to get to the bottom of an extra large ice cream bowl.

Oh well if he said that then I'm convinced.

 

[Winston]

Trump lies so much he can't even come close to keeping his story straight. :lol:

I know, he can't stay on talking points. you'd think like.. jared kushner would've been there before the interview to tell him..."look here's the story.. here's what you say. you don't say anything else"

You really think Comey was in charge of any investigation? He was just a figurehead.

We're lucky. Trump isn't savvy enough to stay on point.

Slap your buddy Winston on the forehead. He's confused.

 

[Winston]

Yes, he was in charge of the highest profile case in America. FBI rank-and-file will still be there. But, Comey was their leader. Now, what kind of message did they receive and how do they respond? Do they shut down the russia investigation to keep their jobs. or, do they expand it to stick it to trump?

If true, then Trump firing him was extremely stupid because it totally engulfed his administration in a firestorm from which I do not see him emerging unscathed.

 

[Winston]

I'm not confused about anything. I'm certainly not as confused as Trump surrogates for why Trump made them out to be liars.

They won't shut it down, if anything they may just ramp it up. In some ways, Trump has been his own worst enemy on this. No way will the FBI want to look like they've been punked. And, that does not bode well for Trump...who seems to be nothing but a punk.

Every reporter needs to be on this story and confront the administration every step of the way

you can't fire the whole FBI.

Did you see Trump canceled some sort of planned FBI visit, because of widespread enmity within the FBI towards Trump. The deputy testified under oath the Comey enjoyed, "broad support" within the FBI.

 

[lurchadams]

I'm waiting for the trump toadie who is going to replace comey to climb in the clown car. please be like.. sarah palin... oh, if we could squeeze some palin into the trump admin. america would be consumed by elevated levels of clown activity.

I'm betting on Sheriff Arpaio. Such an obvious choice to class up the Hoover Bldg.

 

[Ikari]

The Washington Post did a great job of outlining all the competing explanations for the Comey firing.

https://www.washingtonpost.com/news...eys-firing-a-timeline/?utm_term=.d8aaa7892a5e





First the excuse was Comey was fired for the AG letter. Now, it's morphed into the FBI was in 'turmoil' And Trump comes out and admits to obstructing justice in the Lester Holt interview. He says he fired Comey for "made up Russia stuff"



Trump: I was going to fire Comey regardless of recommendation.

Trump Interview With Lester Holt: Russia Ties 'Made Up' Story by Democrats | NBC 6 South Florida



Why did Spicer, Pence, Huckabee-Sanders, and Conway, all have talking points that are contradictory to what Trump says.

Either. A. Trump is a big fat liar.
or B. Trump surrogates are big fat liars.
or C. They are all big fat liars.

C, final answer.

Trump should just appoint el chapo to head the fbi.. lmao.

 

[MrShangles]

Man, I'm so done with Trump at this point.

We don't want your kind that follows MSM anyway. Go Trump

OK next thread title will need to be:
Why does Trump go on Judge Jeanine and contradict Trump on Lester Holt?

It's just Trump's style see? Contradicting himself and everyone around him, every day, is a *style* that we Trump supporters adore! He's just like us!

If trump contradicts everything he says, how can anyone trust a thing he says

First it qwas comey asked for more money...false. Second, he was in charge....yeah right. Now they have info that will bring down Trump.. Nothing is what they have..

Which explanation for the firing of James Comey do you agree with. Do you agree with man-child in chief Trump that he fired him because the FBI was in "turmoil"

Or, do you agree with the Trump surrogates, that reasons contained in the AG letter, were the pretext for firing?

Because Trump governs by freelancing and doesn't give a rat's ass if his eccentric style leaves his aides naked and stranded on an island.

It must be hell working in such a dysfunctional environment, wondering every morning what new Trump-stupidity has to be either whitewashed or doubled-down on.

Man, I'm so done with Trump at this point.

While the Access Hollywood tape showed me that the 2016 Trump was the same POS that NY had known for 30 years, I did have some measure of hope when listening to his post election victory speak. That Trump displayed both calmness and sincerity. Once I heard the ridiculous inaugural speech, I knew that we were screwed. Sadly, that sentiment gets re-affirmed on an almost daily basis.

And I have a big red bridge in California that is for sale too.......LMAO

 

[Tanngrisnir]

No, that's what was assumed. The investigation continues so, there was no obstruction.

Trump contradicts spokeswoman on effect of Comey firing - CNNPolitics.com

No, sorry, it's not 'assumed'.

"And in fact when I decided to just do it I said to myself, I said, “You know, this Russia thing with Trump and Russia is a made-up story, it’s an excuse by the Democrats for having lost an election that they should’ve won.”

Obstruction of justice, plain as day and twice as ugly.

Trump was mortified that he would be "booed" and rightfully so. His fragile ego could in no way handle that type of "in your face" criticism. That is why he always schedules his victory campaign gatherings in friendly environments.
