As many of us did, we watched, read, digested, and were amazed by the Comey hearings.
Far more amazing were the jaundiced headlines from the media.
President Trump's lawyer, Marc Kasowitz, presented the truth that came out of the Comey testimony....
1. "Contrary to numerous false press accounts leading up to today's hearing, Mr. Comey has now finally confirmed publicly what he repeatedly told President Trump privately: That is , that the President was not under investigation as part of any probe into Russian interference.
2. ...Comey,... admitted that there is no evidence that a single vote changed as a result of any Russian interference.
[This was always what was meant to be implied by using the term 'hacking' and the bogus '...hacked the election.']
3. ....Comey's testimony also makes clear that the President never sought to impede the investigation into attempted Russian interference in the 2016 election and in fact, according to Mr. Comey, the President told Mr. Comey quote "it would be good to find out" closed quote in that investigation if there was quote "some satellite associates of his who did something wrong," closed quote.
President Trump, did not exclude anyone from that statement.
4.....he [the President] did say to Mr. Comey, quote "General Flynn is a good guy, he has been through a lot" quote and also quote "asked how General Flynn is doing" closed quote Admiral Rogers testified that the President never quote "directed [him] to do anything .... illegal, immoral, unethical or inappropriate" closed quote and never never quote "pressured [him] to do so" closed quote.
