I'm not sure what Collins is going for but she's prompting some really good answers
Well, the conversation with Flynn is open and shut obstruction of justice.
Comey has openly confirmed under oath on public record that the Russians did interfere with the investigation.
lankford made Coney list all the people who didn't ask him to stop the Flynn investigation
Trying to make it sound like trump was using a "light touch" ie wasn't really pressuring
That's a really generous assumption to think he has any idea HOW to use any of these other authorities
but it actually just makes it sound all the more like trump had personal, vested interest in ending the investigation
because we've already established he doesn't understand the chain of command at all
it makes him sound all the more corrupt. bad line of questioning, senator.
I doubt he's trying to hang his party
If I wanted to hang my party and I was a Republican I'd be backhanded about this
Comey is talking circles around this guy
this is incredibly incoherent
the realization that his party no longer has any moral or factual ground to claim the lofty concept of patriotism has hit his brain
it's like watching a stroke in process
seriously that was weird.
he called Comey president at one point
and was moving his lips like he was muttering while not saying anything
he wishes comey was president
Poor dude just wants to have a nap
imagine mccain writing in his journal about this, how he accidentally uttered his secret wish to comey's face
those were some serious fucking acrobatics trying to involve Clinton in the Russian investigation too
somehow invoking the closure of the Benghazi investigation as evidence of double treatment because the Trump campaign was still involved in the Russian investigation
Comey looked fucking confused by that
even tried to get McCain to just. stop babbling at one point.
wow, I think we watched two separate hearings
But didn't he, like, only speak to Obama twice
no, they're right, it is suspicious. we should look into what it is about trump that made the fbi director believe their talks required documentation.
