Nah. The Comey NON News was the thing that hurt the most. Not to mention the 24 years you guys bashed the Clintons
But she didn't campaign enough in PA, MI and WI.
Plus it turns out she's not that likable. Neither is Trump but he's got name recognition and he ran a smart campaign. He pretended to be the change candidate when in reality he's the biggest snake in the swamp.
Comey's non-news was: Sure Hillary's a criminal but she didn't mean to be a criminal
And Trump didn't mean to obstruct justice. He's just new to all this. Right?
House Speaker Paul Ryan sought Thursday to explain President Donald Trump's asking then-FBI Director James Comey to
drop an investigation into former national security adviser Michael Flynn, saying he was new at the job and did not understand protocols.
"Of course there needs to be a degree of independence between (the Justice Department), FBI and the White House, and a line of communications established," Ryan said during his news conference, which occurred at the same time as Comey was testifying across Capitol Hill before the Senate intelligence committee..
"The President's new at this. He's new to government. So, he probably wasn't steeped in the long-running protocols that establish the relationships between DOJ, FBI and White Houses. He's just new to this."
Pushed further by CNN, Ryan said, "I'm not saying it's an acceptable excuse. It's just my observation."
"He's new at government, and so therefore I think that he -- he is learning as he goes," Ryan said.
Ryan also argued that
Comey's opening statement revealed why the President was frustrated with the ongoing investigation into Russia.
RELATED: James Comey has called Donald Trump a liar 5 times today. The White House says he isn't.
"I think people now realize why the President is so frustrated. When the FBI Director tells him on three different occasions that he's not under investigation, yet the speculation swirls around the political system that he is, that's frustrating," Ryan said.
Ryan declined to comment on whether he thought it was appropriate for Trump to ask Comey to drop the investigation into Flynn.
"I'm not going to comment on these things, because these are all apart of these ongoing investigations and I'm not gonna prejudge this stuff, because what I don't want to do is -- in the middle of a House intelligence committee investigation, a Senate intelligence committee investigation, and now an independent counsel -- is to speculate on the day-to-day intrigue of all of these issues," Ryan said.
