    There was no trial or investigation on him. The left likes to try and brainwash America with their lies.

    That is all over the internet and what does it matter if he just cut and pasted it? The truth is still the truth regardless where it came from.

    He handled himself very well. In fact, the entire Senate came out of the Comey testimony looking pretty good, for a change. Outside of Harris, there really was no grandstanding, Comey tried, but it flopped.

    I find this most amusing - and tragic.

    It was clear from the start what an idiot Trump is but people fell for his lies because they wanted to believe them even though they knew his promises were rubbish.
    People voted for Clinton who was almost as stupid and very clearly a serious security risk.

    Both lots of fools ignored common sense because they wanted their idiot in power, so much so no one even considered the possibility of putting up a candidate with a brain who was actually good for the US.

    The really sad thing - no one will admit their fool is a fool, that applying to both fools and both lots of supporters.

    Actually, Donald Trump is entirely responsible. He had a lot of fellow travellers. The feckless media that gave his buffoonery a stage because it was good for ratings. A GOP leadership that sold its soul to this defective, dishonest braggart because they were desperate for ANY candidate that might win. There are others, but they are fairly obvious.

    And the DNC getting caught redhanded, totally betraying its own voters, ( via their OWN EMAILS) ,while spewing racist epithets about others, wasn't so good for them, either. :)

    Good point! I forgot to mention the Russians!

    After all, you never saw any e-mail from the RNC or the Trump campaign.

    LOL, Comey definitely looks to be more believable than the Pres. does. Lets see if he goes through with testifying under oath, I doubt it will happen its just another example of him shooting off at the mouth.

    If you know he was never put on trial, why did you say "Trump was proven innocent"? Who, in your mind, proved him innocent?

    Oh my. It's all over the internet, therefore it is truth.

    These are all over the internet...
    I guess, in your mind, they are also the truth, right?

    The point of my post was that people on forums should express their own opinions, not just cut and paste. If you don't see that as intellectually lazy, that's your problem.

    trump doesn't need to testify under oath. He can just hand over the tapes and sink the Comey ship.

    I can hardly wait.

    First post in response to the OP was a deflection to "HILLARY!". Well done. Does President Trump pay you by the word to carry his water?

    I'm very disappointed in Rubio, and have called his office to say just that. After the way Trump treated him in the primary, he should just let Trump twist in the wind. I would.

    I hope you don't expect anyone to take you seriously when you cite Lush Limpballs as a news source.

    Trump Lawyer to File Leak Complaint After Comey Testimony

    WASHINGTON — President Donald Trump's outside counsel will file a leak complaint regarding former FBI Director James Comey's leaked memos with the Department of Justice, a source close to the outside legal team tells NBC News.

    Trump lawyer Marc Kasowitz will file the complaint with the DOJ's Inspector General and the Senate Judiciary Committee after Comey testified Thursday that he allowed a personal friend to leak a memo of his conversations with the president to news outlets in hopes it would trigger the appointment of a special counsel.

    "I asked a friend of mine to share the content of a memo with the reporter," Comey told the Senate yesterday during several hours of questioning. "I didn’t do it myself for a variety of reasons, but I asked him to because I thought that might prompt the appointment of a special counsel."

    That friend was Columbia Law Professor Dan Richman, a close personal friend of Comey, friends of Richman confirmed to NBC News.

    In a statement after Comey's testimony Thursday afternoon, Kasowitz labeled Comey as "one of these leakers" who are "actively attempting to undermine the president" and strongly suggested that federal authorities investigate Comey's leaks — even though the memo that Comey gave to a friend was not classified and was turned over after he was fired.

    Despite so many false statements and lies, total and complete vindication...and WOW, Comey is a leaker!

    3:10 AM - 9 Jun 2017

    Trump himself seized on the moment after a day of Twitter silence, calling Comey out as a "leaker."

    There never was an investigation according to Comey so there is nothing to conclude. Come back to the real world and not the fantasy anti Trump world.
